The wait is over… here’s the BIBAs finalists for 2025!

Presenting your BIBAs finalists for 2025!

After pouring over hundreds of applications and grilling the applicants at last week’s interviews, the finalists of Lancashire’s most prestigious awards can now be revealed.

From leisure to low carbon, creative to construction and medium to manufacturing, all 20 categories are ready for the next stage of the process.

Headline sponsor Lancashire County Council were amongst hundreds of judges who took part in the interviews at Deepdale last week – and the finalists are all ready to do battle next month when the BIBAs on Tour hits the road.

Damian Walmsley, partner at MHA, sponsors of Medium Business of the Year, said: “The calibre of this year’s BIBAs finalists is nothing short of outstanding. These businesses and individuals represent the very best of Lancashire – resilient, innovative, and relentlessly ambitious. Each finalist should be incredibly proud of their achievements and the example they set for our thriving business community.

“Recognition at this level isn’t just a pat on the back—it’s a mark of excellence. These finalists have not only excelled in their own industries but also contributed significantly to Lancashire’s economic and social vibrancy. Their stories deserve to be celebrated.

“MHA is proud to support the BIBAs and the remarkable organisations that drive growth, create jobs, and invest in our communities every day.”
