It’s not easy running your own business, juggling increasing overheads, big company competition and a move away from area and city centre high streets and local communities to online shopping.
So, we want to show Mid Cheshire small business owners some love and celebrate the best the area has to offer.
Make your favourite independent’s day by nominating them for our Best Independent Shop award and join the #ukindieday celebrations.
Independents’ weekend will run across the UK next Saturday and Sunday, July 6 and 7, in a bid to support and promote independent retail businesses with International Independents’ Day being celebrated on Thursday, July 4.
Independents account for around 65 per cent of the 290,000 retail outlets in the UK and they are at the heart of local communities.
