1. Download and complete your application form...

Applications forms are available from the 8th of September. Decide which category best suits your business and download the application form from that page. You can enter in two categories if you wish but you must complete a separate application form for each category. Do not exceed the stated length or your application will be immediately disqualified. Submit 4 copies of your completed application form no later than 3.00pm on Friday 9th October.

Once your application has been submitted book your tickets for the Ball and start planning for the big night by calling Marian on 041 9833544.

2. Wait for the shortlist...

Judges will meet to evaluate all applications in October. On the 29th October the shortlisted companies will be announced. All companies who enter the awards will be contacted. Companies that have been shortlisted will be called for interview. Those participating in the Hair, Health & Beauty Award, Customer Excellence in Tourism & Hospitality Award, Best Retailer & Best Eatery Award categories will not sit an interview but will be visited by a Mystery Shopper between 1st - 10th November.

3. Attend the Ball...

The winners will not be known until the night of the Awards. This glittering, black tie social event of the business calendar promises to be a wonderful night so don't miss out. The Drogheda Business Excellence Awards is a great opportunity to relax and celebrate the success of the last year and forget about the challenges (at least for one night). Once the awards are over then dance the night away, fall into bed and surface for a late breakfast at CityNorth Hotel.
