Brighton-based Yummy Lollies has picked up a prestigious award. The company won the Best Growing Business BusinessMums Award at the BusinessMums Conference.

The awards celebrate the growing number of women who combine motherhood with entrepreneurship, while also acting as inspiration to those who are just getting started. Within only four years, Yummy Lollies has 700 outlets selling its real fruit ice lollies across Britain.

Sarah Smith and Zoe Meredith, of Yummy Lollies, said: “We are shocked and delighted to win the Best Growing Business BusinessMums Award. I m sure it was very evident that we didn’t expect to win the award as there were so many amazing women at the conference who have achieved so much. We believe it will make a fantastic difference to us and our business. The recognition that comes with receiving the award is great as we have already had lots of lovely emails and messages from people congratulating us and wishing us continued success. The award has already found pride of place in our new office.”
