Finalists announced for Made in Stockport Awards 2025

After over 500 nominations were submitted, the finalists have been announced for the Made in Stockport Awards 2025, which celebrate the borough’s artisan and creative businesses.

The annual awards were launched in 2021 by Stockport’s Aqua Design Group to help promote creative businesses in the aftermath of Covid-19 lockdowns. The awards have since grown thanks to the support of sponsors, including this year’s principal sponsor, Mailbox developer Rise Homes, while category sponsors this year also include Muse, Almond Family Pubs and TPD Wealth Management.

2025 has seen 35 Stockport businesses shortlisted for the Made in Stockport Awards across nine categories.

Winners in each category will be decided via an online public vote, which closes 23rd May 2025.

Winners will be announced at the awards event on Thursday 26th June 2025, which will be taking place this year at the Alma Lodge hotel in Heaviley. Entertainment for the awards will be provided by John Fitzpatrick at Bask.
