If there's one thing the equestrian industry knows how to do, it's gallop towards excellence. And what better way to applaud that excellence than through the annual British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA) Awards?

Awards that Put Customers in the Saddle

Taking a customer-focused approach, the BETA Awards are the industry's spectacle to celebrate outstanding equestrian businesses based on customer nominations. These accolades testify the companies' commitment to scale mountains and cross rivers to deliver unparalleled products and services. Wait, did we mention customer satisfaction already?

For the upcoming 2024 BETA Awards, the association enquires nominations in four primary consumer categories:

  • Safety Equipment Fitter of the Year
  • Zebra Products Retailer of the Year
  • Stubbs England Nutritional Helpline of the Year
  • Equine Fitter Award

The nomination process is as simple as a Sunday morning trot. Any consumer can visit the BETA website and vote for their personal heroes in the industry. All entries are then put to a rigorous judging process, incorporating secret shoppers, mystery calls, with panels chipping in where relevant. Only those businesses that truly stand out are awarded these prestigious titles.
