Westcoast Workwear was named Southport Business of the Year 2026 in August.
The inaugural Southport Business Awards, organised by One Media Solutions, was held on Friday 21st August.
“We were encouraged to enter by some of our customers,” explained Westcoast Workwear’s MD Tom Mills. “We always see other companies winning awards but we never really think to enter. We have always just stayed in the background and got on with things quietly.
“There were around 150 nominations and we were actually entered for customer service award – it was the judges who then chose the nominees for the Southport Business of the Year Award.
“The judges said we continuously go above and beyond for our customers and also make a huge contribution to local charities.
“To win was a huge honour, we were up against some really big, well-known companies. It is our first-ever award in 30 years of trading – it’s really nice to now be the ‘award-winning Westcoast Workwear’.”
The free-to-enter awards, which were held in the Ladies Day Marquee at the Southport Flower Show, had 15 categories for local businesses to enter, along with the Business of the Year Award.
