Despatch Cloud is delighted to announce that we have been chosen as finalists in two categories for this year’s FSB Small Business Awards. 

Competing in the Yorkshire and Humber region, we’ve been nominated for the Digital/eCommerce Business Award as well as the Business and Product Innovation Award, for Shipping by Despatch Cloud. This is a tremendous achievement for the whole team, and we can’t wait for the finals.

The FSB Awards is an annual event that focuses on the progress made by small businesses around the country. Every year, the incredible work put in these companies is recognised at regional award shows, before the winners compete for the chance to be named the UK’s leading small business at an awards event which this year is being held in Glasgow. 

To be chosen for not one, but two categories make us incredibly proud. When notifying us of our progress, the team at FSB mentioned an ‘increase in both the number of entries received and the quality of entries’, so being put through to the finals in two different sections is testament to the hard work and motivation shown by the entire Despatch Cloud team. 

The Yorkshire and Humber Awards will take place at the Principal Hotel in York this year, on February 25th. This prestigious award has risen in prominence since its founding and is now classed as the largest event in the small business calendar.  FSB is a company that is known for the work they do in supporting small businesses and recognising their work. They are now nearing half a century of operation, and continue to be at the forefront of the small business world, always providing help to small businesses and proudly showcasing their work.

Shipping by Despatch Cloud is competing for the Business and Product Innovation award. This product provides a single access point to over 55 couriers and offers customers the chance to instantly switch between couriers, track deliveries, and set shipping rules to automatically select the right service for the job. It is a product we are incredibly proud of, and we look forward to seeing Shipping rubbing shoulders with other innovative products from our region. 

We are also a finalist in the Digital/eCommerce Business award. The whole team at Despatch Cloud work tirelessly to provide time-saving and simple solutions to eCommerce businesses of all sizes, and we are proud to offer a business the chance to scale with ease and to save time on their logistics, meaning they will have more time to focus on their whole operation. 

2021 was a great year for our business, and we now have more integrations, more staff and more customers than ever before. We would like to thank the team at FSB awards for choosing Despatch Cloud as one of the leading small businesses in this country and are excited to attend the event on 25 February. We would like to wish every attendee the best of luck, and we look forward to getting to meet you all at the ceremony.
