A fast-growing auction house has been crowned Best New Business.
Royal Wootton Bassett-based RWB Auctions took home the title at the Best SME Awards, just two years after launching.
The company was founded by Jon White, who transformed a former supermarket into a high-end saleroom with a gallery and on-site café bistro.
Mr White said: "I am incredibly proud of RWB Auctions for winning Best New Business at the Best SME Awards.
"Finding our footing in a competitive industry has been a real challenge, but in the two years since our first sale, we have seen remarkable success.
"This award is a testament to the hard work that has brought us to this point and to the fantastic, dedicated team that has made it possible."
The awards, held in Daventry, celebrate the achievements of small and medium-sized businesses across the UK.
RWB Auctions’ win was praised by the judging panel, who noted its strong start in a traditional sector and its focus on modern, customer-centred service.
Jon White said: "It’s been a lot of hard work to get to this point, so to see it recognised like this is a great moment for the team.
"We’re looking forward to building on it."
The auction house has built a strong reputation through word of mouth and repeat business since its first sale two years ago.
The judges also highlighted the company’s strong growth, high volume of five-star Google reviews, and willingness to make tough decisions early on.
