567 Cape Talk in partnership with Softline Pastel, established the Small Business Awards in 2008 to focus on supporting and fostering South Africa's entrepreneurial culture. Once again, listeners were asked to nominate businesses that have provided them with excellent service.
From the hundreds of businesses that were nominated, 30 finalists were selected and each business owner was interviewed on either the Breakfast Show with Kieno Kammies or the John Maytham Drive show.
