We've won Tech/Digital Business of the Year 2026!

We're celebrating a huge milestone at Brand12 after being named Tech/Digital Business of the Year at the Pride of Tameside Business Awards 2026!

Held at Dukinfield Town Hall on Friday 9 October, the awards brought together businesses from across Tameside for an evening celebrating the people, innovation and achievements that make our local business community so special.

To be recognised alongside so many fantastic businesses is an incredible achievement for our entire team, particularly following one of the most significant years in our agency's development.

A remarkable year of growth

The past 12 months have been a period of real transformation for Brand12.

We've introduced our new brand identity, grown our team from six to 11 people and continued expanding the services and expertise we offer our clients.

We've also opened our London satellite office, allowing us to work more closely with our growing client base in the South while maintaining our headquarters at Ashton Old Baths in Tameside.

Alongside our continued growth in digital marketing, branding and website development, we've invested further in technology, developing our own digital applications and expanding our work within the automotive industry.

It's been a year of ambitious projects, new partnerships and opportunities to challenge what we can achieve as an independent agency.

Through all of this, our commitment to Tameside has remained an important part of who we are. We're continuing to invest in our team, create opportunities and build a business that contributes to the local economy.

Recognition for an incredible team

While the past year has brought plenty of changes, one thing has remained constant: the passion and commitment of the people who make Brand12 what it is.

Behind every successful project is a team of talented individuals who bring together their different skills, ideas and expertise to deliver work we're genuinely passionate about.

From our designers and developers to our digital marketing specialists, strategists and wider team, everyone has played a part in getting us to where we are today.

Winning Tech/Digital Business of the Year is a wonderful recognition of that collective effort.

We're also incredibly grateful to our clients, who continue to trust us with their businesses and give us the opportunity to work on some exceptional projects. Their continued support and ambition are a huge part of our story.

And, of course, a special thank you to our friends and families for their encouragement and support as we've continued to grow.

Celebrating the best of Tameside business

The Pride of Tameside Business Awards are about much more than individual achievements. They provide an opportunity to recognise the businesses, entrepreneurs and organisations making a difference across our borough.

As a Tameside-based agency, we've always valued being part of such an active and supportive business community.

This year, we also had the opportunity to support the awards as a digital sponsor, contributing to an event that celebrates the achievements of businesses of all sizes and across a wide range of industries.

A huge thank you to Dean Kleban, the organising team and everyone involved in delivering such a spectacular evening. We'd also like to thank the judging panel for the time and commitment involved in recognising this year's businesses.

Congratulations to every winner and finalist. It's fantastic to see so much talent, determination and ambition being celebrated right here in Tameside.

Looking ahead

Winning Tech/Digital Business of the Year is a significant moment for us, but we're certainly not standing still.

We have ambitious plans for the future, with continued investment in our people, technology and the creative and digital services we provide.

We're looking forward to building on everything we've achieved, developing new ideas and continuing to deliver work that makes a meaningful difference to our clients.

For now, though, we're taking a moment to celebrate.

Tech/Digital Business of the Year 2026. What an achievement for our team!
