We are delighted to announce that our annual search for Scotland’s local retailing stars is now officially underway. The SLR Awards are back for their 23rd edition, with the awards ceremony taking place in Glasgow on 4 June 2025.

It’s been another challenging year for the sector and 2025 looks set to be more of the same, but we know that Scotland is packed with fantastic, creative, dedicated and successful local retailers – and we want to hear from you.

The SLR Awards presents a fantastic opportunity to share best practice, learn from one another and, of course, have a cracking night out into the bargain.

Our glittering awards ceremony at the Radisson blu will pay homage to the very brightest lights in our sector and if you think you’ve got what it takes to be there, then we want to hear just how far you’ve come over the past 12 months.

So please do get involved and we look forward to hearing from you.
