Finalist at B&LLA Awards 2026

West Design Products Celebrates Double Finalist Recognition at 2026 B&LLA Awards Following Previous 2025 Win!

West Design Products is proud to announce that it has been named a finalist for the second consecutive year in the prestigious Best Brand Licensed Gifting Range category at the 2026 Brand & Lifestyle Licensing Awards (B&LLA). This recognition follows the company’s success in 2025, when it won Best Brand Licensed Gifting Product or Range for its acclaimed collection developed in partnership with the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS).

Building on that achievement, West Design Products has secured not one, but two finalist positions in this year’s awards. The shortlisted ranges include the Natural History Museum “British Birds” and “Beauty in Nature” Craft Ranges and the Royal Shakespeare Company Giftable Art and Craft Collection—both showcasing the company’s continued commitment to creativity, quality, and meaningful brand collaborations.

The 2026 awards saw more than 3,000 entries submitted across 12 categories, highlighting the scale and competitiveness of the event and making this dual recognition all the more significant.

Jo Bray, Managing Director – Sales and Marketing at West Design Products, commented: “We were genuinely shocked, yet absolutely delighted, to discover that we had been announced as finalists twice over in the same category. It’s an incredible honour and a real testament to the passion, creativity, and dedication of our team, as well as the strength of our licensing partnerships.”

This exciting news comes hot on the heels of West Design Products also being named a finalist in the Gift of the Year Awards 2026, further reinforcing the company’s position as a leading innovator within the gifting and creative products sector.

As anticipation builds for the awards ceremony, West Design Products remains focused on delivering inspiring, high-quality ranges that resonate with consumers and celebrate some of the UK’s most beloved cultural institutions.
