Almost 80 different businesses and organisations have been shortlisted in an annual business awards which is making a return this year to being an in-person ceremony.
Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce has unveiled the bumper shortlist across 12 categories for its 2022 business awards which take place at the ICC in March.
Among the shortlisted firms and organisations are Birmingham's famous Selfridges store, the Touchwood shopping centre in Solihull, Midlands law firm Shakespeare Martineau and Birmingham County Football Association (scroll down for the full list).
The overall Greater Birmingham Business of Year will be chosen from the category winners at the award ceremony on March 4.
Katrina Cooke, the chamber's chief commercial officer who also chaired the judging panel, said: "The judges faced a mammoth task this year and we're so grateful for the time they took to assess all entries in detail.
"The standard of entries was again high with a number of previous winners and entrants joining the competition to be honoured. We also thank the huge number of the companies who took the time to complete entries."
