Finalists in the Bury Free Press West Suffolk Business Awards will discover on Friday if they have won one of the much-coveted accolades
Business and individuals shortlisted in this year’s Bury Free Press Business Awards will discover on Friday if they have won one of the much-coveted accolades.
The business awards, now in its 13th year will be held at the Apex in Charter Square, Bury St Edmunds.
More than 250 people will gather for the black-tie event with the winners and highly commended announced across 13 categories.
The event will be hosted for the second year running by ITV Anglia news anchor, Becky Jago.
Last week, finalists gathered for pre-awards networking.
The event was a first for the annual awards process and brought together organisers, those
shortlisted and sponsors - for a special drinks and canapes event at Edmunds Restaurant in Bury St Edmunds.
Food and drink, prepped and served by students from the college was enjoyed by guests and sponsored by Thomas Ridley Foodservice.
