Awards deadline this Friday! 
12/05/2025
The deadline for the Baby Products Industry Association’s Awards is fast approaching and companies wishing to gain recognition for their products have until this Friday 16th May 2025 to complete their entries.
The BPIA’s Awards (formerly the BANTAs) are particularly significant for those wishing to gain industry recognition and are referred to by retailers and buyers seeking products, which in the opinion of the judges, are likely to be best-sellers.
This year, the awards will be presented during the BPIA’s AGM and Networking Event at the Hilton Kensington on Tuesday 17th June 2025. This is free to attend (for members and non-members) and will include drinks and nibbles after.
Julie Milne, general manager of the BPIA, explains: “The awards have always been much-coveted in the industry, but whilst presented at Harrogate International Nursery Fair, limited entry to exhibitors. For the first time this year, the awards are open to everyone in the industry. The event in London on 17th June is free to attend and provides the perfect opportunity to network and find out the latest industry information.

As part of its 2025 Awards, the Baby Products Industry Association (BPIA) presents its Golden Rattle Awards, sponsored by Nursery Today magazine. These awards are to recognise exceptional contributions to the UK’s nursery industry. This could be anything from a sales agent who has gone over and above expectations to deliver exceptional service; a nursery retail assistant who has raised huge amounts of money for charity; or someone who has worked in the industry for many decades and made a significant contribution to the industry.
All nominations are FREE. There will be a maximum of three Golden Rattle Awards each year.
If you have an industry colleague who you believe deserves recognition for an outstanding contribution to the nursery industry - please send your nomination in. The deadline for nominations is Friday 16th May 2025.
