Do you have an award-winning product? 
14/02/2018
The Baby Products Association has announced the opening of its 2018 Baby and Nursery Trade Awards (BANTAs); and all companies exhibiting at Harrogate International Nursery Fair are invited to enter products which they feel are a cut above the rest.
Julie James of the Association explains: “The BANTAs are judged by a panel of industry experts who all have in-depth knowledge of the nursery industry and excellent commercial awareness. The finalists and winners are chosen for a number of factors including consumer appeal, innovation, marketability, safety and value for money. The Awards provide visitors and buyers attending the show an indication of products which the judges consider are likely to do well in 2018.”
There are four categories in the BANTAs this year, kindly sponsored by Nursery Today magazine:

HOME |
High chairs, stair gates, cooker guards, tap guards, harnesses and reins, changing bags, mealtime accessories such as bottles, bowls, cutlery and soothers. |
