Hundreds of entries in 22 categories have been pored over by this year’s panel of expert judges. Categories recognise excellence in specialist areas such as retail lighting and technology and in specific retail categories.
Winners and runners-up will be announced on 19 September.
As retail goes through its latest evolution, driven by changing customer demands and new technology, innovation and creativity has become an even more important factor in determining success.
“Judging this year’s Creative Retail Awards has been an inspiring experience. The calibre of the entries is truly impressive, showcasing how the industry, after a period of uncertainty is now embracing a bright and innovative future” says Tim Nash, one of the judges this year.
