| Greg Couzens - Most Loved Business, Prize Winner Beryl Doggett & Deborah Bell - Best of Rochdale |
February has always been a special
time of year for all those in love. It is a time when loved ones go out of
their way to show they care. And that’s just what Deborah Bell and Gary Tunney
have been encouraging local people to do in Rochdale. Greg
Couzens in Rochdale have been doing the same and made an extra effort to show
how much they are appreciated and loved locally and have won the title as the
‘Most Loved’ business in Rochdale.
The Local & Loved awards has seen the best businesses across the UK go head
to head to earn the title of ‘The Most Loved Business in the UK’. For the 14
days leading up to Valentine’s Day consumers have had the chance to review
their favourite local businesses reinvigorating and raising the profile of
their local community. During the competition tens of thousands of reviews were
added equating to one every 11 seconds as the contest reached its crescendo.
The locals here in Rochdale have really done their bit.
- Several of the Most Loved Businesses come from Rochdale
- Anthony K Vehicle Leasing - Finance Brokers
- Funky Floral - Florists
- TBD Associates – Accountants
The campaign set up by Deborah of thebestof Rochdale said, “It’s been so
exciting to see such a huge number of people actively talking about the great
local businesses and demonstrating their feelings by voting in the Local
& Loved campaign. It just goes to show how much our communities are
supporting their local independent businesses, which is great news for our
local area. Independent businesses are at the heart of our Rochdale and lots of
local business owners – and their loyal staff – are feeling great today because
their efforts have been recognised and appreciated by so many of their loyal
customers.”
Greg Couzens of Rochdale said
the following;
“It’s so rewarding and a real honour to see how much our customers value
what we do. It is great to see people coming out to support local businesses.
We are hoping that this Local & Loved campaign becomes a whole year of love
for ourselves and other local businesses too, indeed if this is the case whilst
we might be winners, in the long run so will all local businesses in Rochdale”
