Park Royal cookie dough maker Doughlicious, Ealing Music Therapy and the University of West London are amongst 13 businesses and organisations shortlisted for the 2027 West London Business Awards.
The winners of the 14th annual awards will be announced at Allianz Stadium in Twickenham on 5 February 2027. More than 100 businesses and individuals made the shortlist after organisers received a record number of entries.
Doughlicious is in the running to retain its manufacturing and design title after also winning West London Company of the Year and Park Royal Business of the Year in 2026. It faces competition from Acton-based Fastsigns Hammersmith.
North Acton science hub Base One is shortlisted in three categories, including West London ‘Business Booster’ of the Year, where it is up against Southall’s Parkside Yards and the University of West London.
Andrew Dakers, chief executive of West London Business and a member of the judging panel, said: “As usual, our judges had many tough decisions to make from a very high standard of entries.”
