This year, Inspiring Independents aimed to celebrate independent retail excellence in the face of adversity, in light of the recent Covid-19 pandemic and the usual regional and category winners have been replaced with five highly commended businesses that demonstrated excellent business practice during the Coronavirus lockdown.

Those five businesses which have been awarded highly commended accolades are: Banks Lyon Jewellers, Harriet Kelsall Bespoke Jewellery, Hill & Hill the Jewellers, Jack Murphy Jewellers and Lumbers.

The other businesses which made the top 100 are ordered in the supplement alphabetically.

Retail Jeweller editor Ruth Faulkner explained: "Our top 100 list of this country’s most inspiring independent retailers is always one of the most popular things we produce, and this year we are delighted to be able to still bring it to everyone in the form of a digital download document.

"We are fortunate to have so many impressive independent businesses in our sector and, what is even more notable, is just how many of these businesses have not only survived but, thrived during the recent challenges brought about by Covid-19."

The initiative was supported this year by headline partner WOLF together with Fleet Luxury Packaging and TH March.
