The British Business Excellence Awards (www.britishbusinessexcellenceawards.co.uk) have today announced that the Department for International Trade will be joining the team, partnering on the Exporter of the Year category for the upcoming 2022 awards.
The Department for International Trade helps to secure UK and global prosperity by promoting and financing international trade, investment and free trade arrangements. They do this through reducing market barriers, driving investment and giving UK exporters the tools, support and opportunities to succeed through global trade. Working closely with businesses of all sizes, across the UK, the Department of International Trade offers a wealth of services to help realise the potential for exporting success. Available at great.gov.uk, companies can create an export plan, identify high-potential markets for their products, search and apply for live export opportunities – and much more.
For the second incarnation of the Lloyds Bank British Business Excellence Awards, the Department for International Trade will be partnering on the Exporter of the Year category, with the award henceforth known as the Department for International Trade Exporter of the Year Award.
The British Business Excellence Awards is the elite business awards programme for businesses of all shapes and sizes. The awards host a year-long programme of networking events, round tables and exemplary judging processes, all of which will then culminate in a spectacular awards ceremony on Tuesday 8th November 2022 at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London.
UK-based businesses can register their interest in entering the awards via https://enter.britishbusinessexcellenceawards.co.uk/, with the deadline being extended to July 14th 2022.
Minister for Exports Mike Freer said:
“Exports are vital to growing our economy, so I’m delighted to back this excellent award. Exporters big and small are the UK’s best salespeople as they sell our fantastic goods and services right around the world so it’s only right we recognise those making a real success of it.”
