The finalists for the
2018 Local Enterprise Awards were revealed earlier
this week following a rigorous screening and judging
process and the awards will be presented during a
special end of year business-lunch in Radisson Blu
Hotel in Letterkenny.
“The awards have been running for over 20 years in
Donegal and we have a stringent process in place to
make the short-list, never mind be named as a
finalist.
The 15 businesses who have reached the final have
all presented plans and faced rigorous scrutiny from
a panel of judges, and can be justifiably proud of
reaching this stage. All that remains is to see who
will win the awards,” said Head of Enterprise,
Michael Tunney.
Stressing that the Donegal Enterprise Awards
celebrate the diversity and strength of the small
business community in Donegal and the role they play
in our local economy, the Head of Enterprise said
the final line up is just a snapshot of the
geographic spread and diversity of small businesses
in Donegal.
“We had many more fine businesses who spent the time
to apply for the awards, but who didn’t make it to
the final stages and I wholeheartedly want to thank
them for doing so and making this a truly
competitive process.
The awards celebrate the achievements and recognise
the success stories of small business owners and I’m
certain that there will be a great turn out on the
day. It’s a great way to support the finalists in
the awards, but also to meet others in business in
an informal setting,” he concluded. |
