2016 Friendly Business Awards Ceremony

JCI South Dublin in association with Bank of Ireland are delighted to announce the return of the Friendly Business Awards for 2016.

The Friendly Business Awards, supported by Amorys Solicitors, is our flagship business programme where we recognise the pivotal role small businesses play in our local community. We live in challenging times for small businesses and the aim of the Friendly Business Awards is to celebrate the value these businesses bring to our local communities every day.

Each summer sees JCI branches across Ireland run the JCI Friendly Business Awards. These awards were set up to recognise businesses that excel in serving the needs of the local community and play a vital role in its development.

These awards are run first at a local level with each branch awarding winners in the following categories:

  • Community Impact
  • Customer Care
  • Digital Experience
  • Disability Access
  • Eco-Friendliness
  • Shop Layout and Design

Each JCI Branch then puts forward a short list of local winners to be considered for JCI Ireland National Friendly Business Awards, which will take place at the JCI Ireland National Convention.
