Three independent Mid Cheshire businesses you voted top of the shops

Independent traders are at the heart of Mid Cheshire’s local communities and with the ongoing cost of living crisis they’re struggling.

It’s not easy running your own business, juggling increasing overheads, big company competition and a move away from town and city centre high streets and local communities to online shopping.

As part of our Best of 2024 competition, earlier this month we wanted to show Mid Cheshire’s small business owners some love and celebrate the best the town has to offer.

Independents account for around 65 per cent of the 290,000 retail outlets in the UK and they are at the heart of local communities.

There were nominations for butchers and florists, fashion boutiques and home improvement places covering dozens of businesses in Mid Cheshire.

We shortlisted the top 10 businesses and shops in the area and you voted Pulse of Perfumery your number one.
