Islam Channel Business Awards 2020 - Finalists Announced

Winners ranged across many business sectors from fashion to investment, travel to real estate, taking in businesses of all sizes. They proved a huge success in bringing together the community, showcasing the contribution of Muslim business to the UK economy and providing positive role models for the next generation of entrepreneurs.

For the second year running, the awards ceremony will be hosted by BBC London’s Asad Ahmad. He said: “I am glad to support the Islam Channel Business Awards, which recognise leading Muslim businesses serving Britain. Their contribution is invaluable, employing millions of people and generating billions of pounds for the UK economy."

Islam is the second largest religion in the UK and according to the Muslim Council of Britain’s 2013 report, ‘The Muslim Pound’, some 33% of all small to medium-sized enterprises in London are Muslim-owned, a figure which is likely to have risen in the interim. Many of the concerns which Muslim businesses address, such as ethical investment, ethical food supply and production, social accountability, modest clothing and alcohol-free beverages have now become mainstream. With its diverse Muslim population and multicultural outlook, the UK has become the centre of many sectors of the Islamic economy including finance, travel and fashion.

The judging panel is made up of senior community and business figures, which includes the Rt. Hon.

Stephen Timms MP, Rimla Akhtar MBE, Adam Ebrahim, Haroon Sheikh OBE and Dr. Ahmed Makhdoom.

The ceremony will take place on 27th March at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House in Mayfair. It will be attended by over 1,000 prominent members of the British business and professional communities including MPs and Ambassadors. 

Islam Channel’s Chairman, Mohamed Ali Harrath, explains the vision behind the Business Awards: "Today, the global Islamic economy is large and growing rapidly. The industry was estimated to be worth $2.2 trillion in 2018 and is projected to be worth $3.2 trillion by 2024 . The UK is playing an important role in the development of this exciting industry and is home to many emerging Muslim owned and Muslim-oriented businesses. The British Muslim population has a young demographic that is increasingly highly educated and affluent. British Muslim businesses are making a significant contribution to the UK economy and by extension the social, political and cultural landscape of Britain. The Islam Channel Business Awards 2020 are our way of recognising and celebrating their achievements and bringing them to the attention of a wider audience." Islam Channel is delighted to announce that the following companies and individuals have been shortlisted as finalists:
