This is a non-entry award – the winner is to be selected by the Strabane BID panel.

First established in 2016 by a majority vote of the businesses within the BID area, Strabane BID is a means of regenerating Strabane town, increasing football, and improving the trading environment.

Set up as an independent, not-for-profit company, the BID board contains representation from businesses and stakeholders in the BID area. Each business within the area contributes by paying an annual Levy, based on the rateable value of their business premises.

Collectively investing in the area gives businesses and stakeholders more control to have their input on what they want to see, and how they can deliver it.
