Nominations Now OPEN For Family Business Of The Year Awards 2025


Family Business United is delighted to announce that nominations are now open for the prestigious, National Family Business of the Year Awards 2025.


As Paul Andrews, Founder and CEO of Family Business United, organisers of these awards since 2012 explains, "These awards are the only national awards for the family business sector and really do shine a spotlight on family firms the length and breadth of the country."


"Family firms of all sizes, generations and sectors come together to recognise the very best of British family firms with regional and sector categories up for grabs, as well as a people's choice that is always hotly contested and voted for by the public, and national titles in areas such as innovation, societal impact, community involvement and sustainability."


"We also recognise the 'ones to watch' and crown a Small Family Business of the Year too."


"And at the end of the night there is also a Supreme Champion and somebody will take home the crown that currently resides with Bagnalls, the specialist painting contractor founded in 1875 in Yorkshire."

"Each year we uncover some incredible family firms, young and old, all of whom deserve recognition for what they do. Family firms are the engine room of the UK economy and deserve their moment in the spotlight."

"It is always an absolute privilege to bring the national family business community together and to see the sheer delight on the faces of the winners too. We look forward to announcing the winners of the 2025 Family Business of the Year Awards in due course," concludes Paul.


Entry is free and simple using the online form below with shortlists announced in January 2025, full submissions due by the end of March 2025 and the announcement of the winners at a gala reception in London in June 2025.





If you would like to know more about the awards and how to get involved do not hesitate to get in touch but in the meantime enter your family business or nominate a family business who you believe is worthy of recognition and it could be the start of a journey to becoming a winner in June next year!
