THE COMMUNITY HERO/HEROES AWARD This is an award that celebrates the vital and unique role that retail plays in local communities. On the back of the pandemic, and at a time when shoppers and their communities are affected more than ever by the cost-of-living crisis, this award applauds individuals or teams who have gone above and beyond their day job to help others. It is open to all personnel from all functions of the business. The judges will be looking for nominations that demonstrate the positive impact retailers can have on people’s lives on a local level and that shine a light on the true brand ambassadors in their business. It’s not about business-led strategies or projects that have been initiated for commercial gain or to meet CSR targets. Instead it’s about the simple, local ideas or projects or perhaps just acts of kindness that have genuinely made a difference. This could be new ways to ensure more unwanted food goes to people who need it, people who have gone out of their way to help people in need, or innovative fundraising projects on a local level. Judges will be looking for evidence of ideas and initiatives implemented in the last 12 months. Managers and teams should be nominated by their company, but individual managers being put forward must have given their consent beforehand.

THE BEST NEW STORE AWARD This category is open to all retail sectors and all sizes of store. It includes all stores that have been newly opened or refurbished during the last 12 months. The judges will be looking for innovation and creativity in the design of the store, which should be in the UK.

THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE GAMECHANGER AWARD This award recognises the retailer that is leading the way in delivering outstanding customer experience.

This award celebrates retail’s sense of social responsibility and willingness to engage with the big issues affecting the world, such as sustainability, slavery, health and diversity.

THE GREEN INITIATIVE OF THE YEAR The overall journey to net zero can seem overwhelming and abstract, and for many retailers that journey is still in its relative infancy. This award recognises those retailers that are making strides towards improving their green credentials, and will celebrate a specific sustainability initiative in the last 12 months, which is making a big impact in its own right or as part of an overall programme. This may be anything from plastic reduction through to more environmentally friendly logistics or waste avoidance, such as in grocery or fashion.
