Brent Small Business Saturday Awards 2021 Shortlist

We are thrilled to announce the shortlisted nominees for this year’s Brent Small Business Saturday Awards.

With over 100 nominations, there was strong competition with entries from a wide variety of independent businesses across the borough.

Our panel of judges will now select the winners from the shortlists in each award category.

The judges include: Cllr Shama Tatler, Lead Member for Regeneration, Highways and Planning, Sarah Spateri, Park Royal Business Group Manager at West London Business, and Kaya Chatterji, Senior Economic Growth Manager at Brent Council.

All shortlisted nominees will be invited to a special ceremony in December where the winners will be announced and presented with their awards.
