Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce were thrilled to present the finalists for the Ayrshire Business Awards 2019 with their certificates at a Networking Breakfast on 29th August at the Carlton Hotel in Prestwick.

In this 10th year of the awards, sponsored by 1825 Financial Planning, there are 15 categories and we received the highest number of applications to date. This just goes to highlight the calibre of businesses we have in Ayrshire and all the finalists are to be commended for reaching the final.

The award winners will be revealed at a Gala Dinner held at Ayr Racecourse on 11th October 2019. Hosted this year by Jennifer Reoch and Edward Reid, the Gala Dinner coincides with the end of the Ayrshire Chamber Business Week which runs a variety of events across the three counties from 7th – 11th October 2019.
