"At IRN, we kept seeing incredible women not getting the recognition they deserve, so we decided to change that. It is time to put them at the centre. I could not be prouder to be part of the first edition and what it represents!"
Maria Vilela, Account Manager, Independent Retail News
WHY THESE AWARDS MATTER
Women play a vital role in independent retail, yet their leadership, resilience and contribution are still underrepresented in formal recognition. These awards exist to change that.
They recognise:
★ Business leadership and growth
★ Community impact and responsible retailing
★ Innovation, marketing and customer experience
★ The suppliers, mentors and allies supporting women-led retail businesses
