Millfield businesses to repeat competition success

FSB are once again pleased to be involved with and actively supporting the ‘Millfield Christmas Window Display Competition’ which was so successful last year. For 2017 the competition will be judged by the Mayor of Peterborough Councillor John Fox with the winners to be announced and presentations made on the afternoon of Tuesday 5 December. FSB are pleased to be offering the same first prize of £100.00 to the overall winners choice of Charity. There are various classes in the competition so many chances for retailers and other businesses to become involved.

All shops and businesses within the Millfield shopping area of Peterborough are encouraged to participate by displaying the A4 window card that shows they are entering.   

The overall winner of the 2016 competition was Fiori Flowers of 204A, Lincoln Road. Fiori Flowers chosen Charity for the £100 first prize was the Parkinsons Society. After the judging on a fairly cold evening the judging committee were treated to a very enjoyable meal in the Rotana restaurant where the winner’s cup was presented to Fiori Flowers

FSB Peterborough Branch Chair – Aasiyah Joseph
