Allica Bank introduces a new category to honor established UK businesses: the “Established Business of the Year” award. This category highlights firms with 5 to 250 employees, which are crucial to local communities, contributing significantly to UK employment and GDP.

Founded in Cardiff in 2012, the Great British Entrepreneur Awards, often referred to as the ‘Grammys of Entrepreneurship,’ celebrates the achievements and inspiring stories of British entrepreneurs and businesses.

Since its launch in late 2019, Allica Bank has been dedicated to supporting established businesses with personalized relationship banking enhanced by advanced technology. It was recently recognized as the fastest-growing company in the UK on The Sunday Times 100 list.

This year, the “Established Business of the Year” category will spotlight successful businesses from various regions across the UK. Making it onto the shortlist for this category is a testament to the exceptional performance, innovation, and resilience of these businesses. It signifies a recognition of their significant contributions to their industries, communities and local economies.
