Don’t miss out on the chance to nominate your favourite city business for a Glasgow Business Award 2010.

The Monday deadline for entries is looming for you to tell us which businesses have done the city proud or has put something back into the communities.

The ever-popular category voted for by Evening Times readers returns as part of the Glasgow Business Awards 2010, which are bigger and better than ever.

They have four new categories and – despite the tough economic climate – six new sponsors.

The 13th annual awards, the flagship event of the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, will this year be held at a ceremony and dinner at the city’s Thistle Hotel on Thursday, October 7.

The lead sponsor is the Bank of Scotland, while the Evening Times is media partner.

Of the 15 awards this year, the Favourite Business Award is the only one not decided by a Chamber judging panel.

Instead, we ask you to nominate businesses – and, later in the process, to vote for the companies on a shortlist.

Last year’s winner was the Q snooker club. Previous winners have included Slater Menswear (2008) and Auch-entoshan Distillery (2007).

For this year’s coveted title, we’d like you to nominate a Glasgow business you think deserves its share of the plaudits. It could be a local radio station, a department store, a music venue, a music shop, a hair or beauty salon, a travel agents, a cafe, a car showroom, a shopping mall. It could be one of the city’s many tourist attractions.

Stuart Patrick, chief executive of Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, said: “We’re proud of the success of Glasgow’s dynamic business community and trust the Glasgow Business Awards 2010 will once again provide a fitting stage for us to toast those performing at the top of their game.”
