Business Finalists – The Industry Awards 2020

October 2, 2020

Congratulations to all the finalists in The Industry Awards' Business categories!

We were so happy to see that despite the crazy year we've been having, so many of you were able to still focus on your business and submit amazing entries.

In particular, it appears that many businesses took the opportunity to redesign your salon and barbershop interiors! We had a record number of entries into the Best Salon Design category this year which was incredible to see.

Note: We will not be awarding a Sustainable Salon of the Year award at The Industry Awards 2020.

Unfortunately this year the entries we received did not reach our expected standard in order to award a winner in this category.

The category will be back again in 2021, and we encourage all businesses who embrace sustainability to show us all of the unique and thoughtful ways you incorporate sustainability into your everyday practices.
