The awards were organised by Paramount Creative, which is also responsible for the Italian Awards, Scottish Fish and Chip Awards and Confetti Wedding Awards.

Warren Paul, CEO of Paramount, said: “This event feels like it has something really special – it seems to mean even more top the businesses honoured because they’re nominated and voted purely by the public.

“Knowing that this is driven entirely by the love and support of their customers clearly means the world to the business owners and their teams celebrating tonight.

“As with all of our events, these wins are a badge of honour and recognition that is so important in these tough times, when the cost of living is through the roof for all of us.”

Warren and Des Clarke hosted the event at the Doubletree Hilton in Glasgow.
