About the BANTA Awards
In 2010 it was decided that the nursery industry would be best served if the October Harrogate Nursery Fair joined forces with the Baby Show for the Trade. This collaboration was cemented even firmer in February 2011 when it was announced that the Baby Products Association's awards (formally known as the BACRA Awards) would be superseded by The Baby and Nursery Trade Awards (BANTAs).
Sponsored by the Nursery Today trade magazine, the BANTA awards were created to reward excellence within the nursery industry. The awards are judged by a panel of industry experts and fair exhibitors are welcome to submit as many products as they like to any category.
