Join us for a hot date in central London this November 5

The best evening of the year is approaching, when the cream of the c-store community gathers in central London for entertainment and awards – and entries are open now!

Calling all independent retailers out there who are proud of their stores and the job they do for their communities – this is your chance to enter one or more of our fabulous categories for the 36th annual Asian Trader Awards.

The big night takes place on Wednesday, 5 November, so simply press the “ENTER THE AWARDS” button, answer some questions about yourself and then upload images of you, your staff and your store – easy as that! You can put yourself forward in up to three categories – which suits our multi-talented readership – so don’t delay, enter today!

There are 16 retailer prize categories, a Best Wholesale Depot prize that you get to vote for, and a Manufacturers’ Awards section where you can let us know which were the stand-out products that helped grow your business over the last year.

It’s a wonderful gala night of winning, eating, music and entertainment where you can meet up with colleagues and friends – and make new friends, too. Join us at the Westminster Park Plaza Hotel – easy to find, just across the Thames from Big Ben – for the convenience night of 2025!
