The Britain’s Best Retailer Awards are the UK home enhancement industry’s annual celebration of excellence.

Since its inception in 2003, the awards are seen as the ultimate recognition of the hard work and dedication of retailers in the diy, garden and housewares sectors.

The awards are highly prized, and the competition to win is intense.

More than 300 representatives from the industry attended the 2007 event at Manchester’s stunning Hilton Hotel, Deansgate, where comedian Bob Mills presented the Gold Awards.
