Ulverston’s Shed One has been nominated in two categories of the prestigious North West Family Business Awards.

The micro distillery, run by husband-and-wife team Andy and Zoe Arnold-Bennett, is a finalist in the Food & Drink Producers (Small Business) category and the Leisure & Tourism category.

The awards ceremony will take place on Friday, May 8 in Liverpool.

Zoe said: “I’m feeling just a little bit proud of The Shed and our brilliant team.

“With so many quality family businesses in our region, it’s a great achievement to be shortlisted in one category, so we’re thrilled to be finalists for two awards.

“Our aim is always to make visitors to The Shed feel at home.

“We welcome them into our little haven and make sure there are plenty of smiles on faces, whether they are popping in for a drink, to buy one of our artisan spirits, enjoying an Afternoon G&Tea, or learning something new on one of our experiences.

“It’s always about making sure people have a good time, and being acknowledged by awards such as the respected North West Family Business Awards, is a big compliment to the efforts of the whole team.”

Finalists will receive a visit from a specially selected panel of judges, who will assess the businesses before making their final decisions.
