Our 2026 Cheshire Business Award Winners
Turning complex sustainability requirements into practical action has earned RM Sustainability Consulting Ltd the title of Business Consultancy of the Year in the Business Consultancy Awards. Working specifically with fashion and textile SMEs, the founder-led consultancy supports clients with areas including B Corp certification, carbon measurement, circularity and social impact. Its implementation-focused approach has helped businesses strengthen their operations, reputations and commercial opportunities rather than treating sustainability as a standalone reporting exercise.
Rapid commercial growth combined with a clear environmental purpose helped Eco Wizard secure Ecommerce Business of the Year in the Ecommerce Business Awards. Through a growing portfolio that includes EV chargers, battery storage systems and environmentally conscious lifestyle products, the business is making practical eco-solutions more accessible to consumers and trade professionals. Strong investment in marketing, product development and customer service has supported substantial growth, alongside more than 1,500 five-star reviews across several platforms.
A personal and approachable alternative to larger financial organisations is at the heart of JG Mortgage Services, winner of Finance Business of the Year in the Finance Awards. Since beginning trading in 2022, the independent brokerage has built its reputation by simplifying complex mortgage decisions, providing regular communication and offering reassurance throughout the application process. Its growing base of referrals, repeat customers and highly positive reviews reflects the trust the team has established across Cheshire and beyond.
Providing calm, individual care for a carefully limited number of small dogs distinguishes Cheshire Dog Hotel as the recipient of the Rising Star Award in the Pet and Animal Care Awards. Based in Knutsford, the fully licensed home boarding service places comfort, safety and personal attention at the centre of each stay. Its considered approach, including overnight reassurance and a home environment free from competing care commitments, has created a strong foundation for this developing local business.
Fast and knowledgeable support underpins the success of Cartridge People, recognised with the Customer Service Excellence Award in the Retail Awards. Its experienced team provides assistance through phone, email, live chat, social media and self-service resources, with calls typically answered within one minute and email responses averaging under four hours. A focus on first-time resolution, individual customer needs and proactive problem-solving has contributed to a 4.8 rating from more than 124,000 reviews and strong customer retention.
Combining practical land management with environmental responsibility, Nether Alderley Landscaping & Forestry Ltd has been named Small Business of the Year in the Small Business Awards. The Cheshire-based company approaches landscaping, forestry and land management projects with an understanding of their wider and longer-term value. Direct communication, tailored delivery and personal accountability have enabled the business to support landowners and communities while building a reputation for reliable workmanship and responsible landscape stewardship.
Strong early growth and a structured approach to digital marketing have secured BSC Socials the title of Best Newcomer Small Business in the Small Business Awards. Established by founder and Creative Director Amy Sweetman in February 2025, the Chester agency has grown from a solo operation into a team delivering social media management, content creation, branding and website development. Alongside achieving a 212 per cent increase in turnover during its first year, the business has supported local companies and charities through campaigns linked to increased sales, footfall, fundraising and community engagement.
Building a regulated healthcare business during the challenges of 2020 required considerable resilience, making Dr Nilufar Egamova of Precision Medical Clinic a deserving Startup Businesswoman of the Year in the Women in Business Awards. Under her leadership, the Macclesfield clinic has grown from one employee to a multidisciplinary team of more than ten professionals. Its integrated services, CQC registration and focus on safe, tailored care reflect Dr Egamova’s commitment to combining responsible business growth with patient dignity, wellbeing and confidence.
Celebrating Cheshire’s Business Community
The achievements recognised in this year’s awards show that successful businesses can grow in very different ways. Some are simplifying technical or regulated subjects for their clients, while others are building trust through responsive service, personal care or consistent project delivery. Across these sectors, the common thread is a clear understanding of the people and organisations they serve.
Cheshire’s Winners also demonstrate the value of combining ambition with sound operating principles. Investment in skilled teams, responsible practices, customer relationships and local communities has helped these organisations establish credible foundations for continued development.
Business Awards UK congratulates all our 2026 Cheshire Winners. Their achievements reflect the expertise, commitment and entrepreneurial strength found throughout the county’s business community.
