Open to businesses that are achieving success through exporting overseas
2020 was a year like no other. The pandemic has brought new challenges, new opportunities, new ways of working. For exporters, particularly those reliant on EU channels, 2021 will bring more.
Every business has a story to tell. Red Rose Awards 2021 wants to share those stories.
The winner of this award may be new to exporting or an established player, but in either case there’ll be a plan, and you’ll be able to show some results.
Our judges will want to see how you are expanding your horizons and developing your markets, and how you are managing challenging current circumstances.
