A very warm welcome to the VM & Display Awards, now in its 26th year and 15th in its current format — the only dedicated UK event that recognises and celebrates this highly innovative and talented industry.

After last year’s success we are pleased to celebrate this year’s awards back at The Bloomsbury Big Top, with TV personality Tom Allen as the evening’s host.

Over the years, the VM & Display Awards have strived to highlight the skills and commitment of those professionals working to promote the image, products and services of retailers and brands, and to attract and inspire customers.

The Retail Focus Readers’ Choice Award returns this year, which reached out to the industry and beyond who voted for their favourite window display from September 2018 to August 2019.

A big thank you to our panel of judges and award sponsors, without whom this event would not be possible.

Please join me in congratulating and celebrating this year’s winners and nominees, as well as the entire VM and display industry for their hard work, passion and dedication.

Andrew Colclough Director of The VM & Display Awards www.vmanddisplayawards.com

If any judge was involved in a scheme or project they abstained from voting on that category. All judges were also unaware of the origins of the submissions.
