The Northern Lincolnshire Business Awards is back as a live event.
Entries are now being accepted for the 2022 bash with ‘A Right Royal Do’ as the theme, as it is held at Grimsby Auditorium days before the Queen’s platinum jubilee celebrations.
And the honours will be flowing for individuals and enterprises of all sizes on the South Humber Bank and immediate hinterland.

Phil Jones, president of organiser Hull and Humber Chamber of Commerce, said: “It will be great to get everyone back to a live event, one that has been so successful in the past.
“We did the very best we could during the difficult period in the pandemic, but everyone is looking forward to getting back to it.
“It is great to give people the platform to showcase what has been achieved and outline what their businesses are about. And it is not just about who the winners are on the night itself, but bringing people together.”
The Chamber has created a new award to add to the 13 already in play for 2022, the Pandemic Business Survive and Thrive Award.

Anne Tate, organiser and northern Lincolnshire manager, said: “We don’t want to underplay the struggles and trials a lot of people have been through and our hearts go out to families who have lost loved ones, but as a business organisation we want to celebrate what has been achieved through the pandemic.
“It is hard to imagine a time when businesses have had to show such resilience and fortitude, with many underlining amazing crisis recovery, innovation and ability to actually improve and grow. They have upskilled, reskilled, gone online or further developed that.”
The black tie gala awards presentation and dinner will take place on Friday, May 13. Richard Askam returns to host the ceremony.
Headline sponsor is Phillips 66, with Business Live as media partner.
Previous winner Stephen Bennett’s Lincolnshire Chef business will once again cater.
