Congratulations to our winning independent businesses!
Many congratulations to all businesses who entered the Seahaven Business Awards!
It was great to see what a wide range of diverse businesses we have within Newhaven, Seaford and Peacehaven. Here are just a few of the types of independent businesses that won awards this year - Harbourside Gymnastics Academy, Maverick Boat Adventures, Yemeni Coffee Company. We had a children’s bookshop, hypnotherapy, fitness, muscle welfare and a training gym. There was a sculptor, handicrafts and a singing teacher. An Indian Restaurant, a food co-operative and community car company, air-conditioning and heat pumps, a new vets, a post office, a software company, a market, photographer and well-being businesses. The youngest new business owner was a teenager and the ‘feel-good-factor’ on the night was overwhelming inspirational. What more can we say!
