Our Headline Sponsor on the evening were incredibly proud to present the award on the evening and had this to say – “At Westwood Motor Group, we’ve always been incredibly proud to be a part of Wigan’s diverse and thriving business community. This Northern Town we all call home is in our hearts and our very bones. We’ve thrived in no small part due to our strong roots in the Borough and now that we’ve achieved a measure of success, it’s an honour and a privilege to give back by supporting local causes, local teams and local events.
Getting behind the Wigan Borough Business Awards was a ‘no brainer’ for us and while our MD Chris Melling couldn’t attend the awards evening personally, I was beyond proud to represent the company in his stead and absolutely delighted to present the 2024 business of the year award, especially as the worthy winner (as voted by the panel) turned out to be our good friends at Greenmount Projects.
Our congratulations to all the night’s nominees and winners, as well as to the incredible team behind the awards. We’ll look forward to next year and to celebrating once again the successes of businesses from across the Borough” – Laura Edwards (Finance Director)
