Councillor Andy Cooper, Chair of the Economy Committee at Arun District Council said:

“We have so many fantastic businesses in Arun of all shapes and sizes and the awards are a great opportunity to celebrate them.

“Winning an award is also great for the business as it raises its profile, gives it free publicity, boosts staff morale and gives them something to shout about.”

Not only does winning an award benefit the business, but the award ceremony also provides a fantastic opportunity for the local business community to come together and celebrate the massive contribution it makes to the Arun district.

Entries must be submitted by 12 noon Friday 14 October 2022 and the award ceremony will take place on Thursday 17 November at Fontwell Park Racecourse.
