Brentwood Business Awards 2026

The Brentwood Buzz was fortunate enough to be a finalist in the 2025 Brentwood Business Awards, and a fabulous night was had amidst the glitz and glamour of an awards evening.

The 2026 finalists have now been announced, and The Brentwood Buzz is very happy to see some previous podcast guests featuring in the awards line up.

Andy Dennis from Meridian Kung Fu is up for the Sole Trader and Community Engagement Awards, while Preen Chakadona from Black and Being Essex is a fellow Community Engagement Award finalist.

The pink cafe, Chantilly, on Crown Street is in the running for the Hospitality Award, while McDonalds and The Lounge, Ingatestone are up for the High Street Impact Award.

If some of these names are familiar to you, or you’ve never heard of them and want to find out more, The Brentwood Buzz has grouped their podcast episodes together so you can have a listen!

S4Ep7 Classy Bars and Grassy Cars

Come to Brentwood High Street and you will see the Sugar Hut – formerly the White Hart coaching inn, and then central nightclub venue for the antics of the The Only Way Is Essex cast – and, if you are lucky, a glimpse of a tiny Smart car covered in fake grass.

Strangely enough, both attractions were brought to the town by the same man, Fraser Donaldson, who’s now the Managing Director of Easigrass Essex and Herts, based at the Hunters Chase Garden Centre in Hutton.

Fraser has been telling The Brentwood Buzz how he came to be involved with classy bars and grassy cars.

S3Ep25 Time for Brentwood, Business and a Bacon Butty

The Brentwood Chamber of Commerce brings together businesses large and small from across the Borough of Brentwood, for support, networking and making a difference in the town.

The Chamber works with the Brentwood Improvement District through Brentwood Connected, and ensures the voices of local entrepreneurs are heard when change is afoot.

The Brentwood Buzz got up very early to join some of our local businesses for a bacon butty and a spot of networking at the latest Brentwood Business Breakfast.
