City business leaders say the UK’s Favourite Local Business competition will shine a light on local. All types of businesses are eligible to win with £1500 in Gloucester Gift Cards as a possible prize.

The Gloucester Gift Card is backing a national UK’s Favourite Local Business 2024 competition as part of a drive to encourage support for local businesses, with £1500 in Gloucester Gift Cards as a possible prize.

Shops, restaurants, salons, hotels and attractions in Gloucester are all eligible to be the UK’s Favourite Local Business 2024.

People can nominate their favourite local business in the competition at lovelocalwin.co.uk, free, giving the name of the local business they think deserves to win and a reason. 

The UK’s Favourite Local Business will be the business who has the most nominations and will win a £500 Town & City Gift Card, such as the Gloucester Gift Card, with one person who nominated the winning business receiving a £1000 Town & City Gift Card.

Led by Gloucester BID, the Gloucester Gift Card is an initiative to encourage local shopping in the city. Over 100 businesses – including big brands and independents – are part of the initiative.

Emily Gibbon, Gloucester BID Manager said the competition will highlight hard working businesses helping the city to thrive:

“We know how hard our businesses in Gloucester work to provide an outstanding customer experience. The UK’s Favourite Local Business competition is a chance for Gloucester residents to shout about the businesses who are going above and beyond to make our city thrive. Whether it’s a retail, hospitality, health and beauty or leisure business, any local business could be crowned as Britain’s best. And there’s a fantastic prize on offer too.”
