BFA Awards

Revive! Gloucester & Bristol Central has been shortlisted for this year’s prestigious HSBC/BFA Franchisee of the Year Awards.

Owners husband and wife team Jinesh and Reena Patel are finalists in the Dynamic Duo category which showcases the benefits of complimentary leaders in business working together to achieve great results. They will find out at a black-tie awards dinner to be held in Telford on 6 November if they will be lifting the coveted trophy.

Said Reena Patel: “We’ve worked hard together to accelerate growth over the past four years and are absolutely delighted to reach the finals of this major award. The personalities that we both have, without a doubt, shapes us to how we behave with each other to ensure we run the business as best we can.”

Added Cathryn Hayes, franchise director at Revive!: “We’re extremely proud of Jinesh and Reena. They’re rising stars here at Revive! and deserve to win this award.”

The BFA (British Franchise Association) is the UK’s leading authority on franchising, dedicated to upholding ethical business practices and high standards. Established in 1977, it empowers businesses and individuals through accreditation, education, and expert guidance. Results of the annual awards are announced at the celebration dinner after the Association’s conference.

The awards are sponsored by HSBC UK. UK head of franchise Gillian Morris said: “My warmest congratulations to all the finalists in this year’s British Franchise Awards. It’s certainly not an easy task but shortlisting the entries and choosing the finalists is one of the highlights of my year. As ever, there are some brilliant businesses amongst this year’s entrants. They really do represent the best of British franchising, and I look forward to seeing them all at the awards ceremony in November.”

Chief executive of the BFA Pip Wilkins said: “Our huge congratulations to Revive! Gloucester & Bristol Central and all our finalists this year. As ever, the entries were very strong, and we commend each and every one of them for their efforts over the past 12 months to do more and to do better. Our members and their franchisees are the backbone of the BFA, upholding the ethical values of the association and we thank them for their commitment. The winners will be announced at our awards event in November, when the best in UK franchising come together to celebrate success. We look forward to seeing Jinesh and Reena there on the night and wish them the very best of luck.”
