John Lamont MP has announced the winners of his local Small Business Awards to celebrate the best Borders enterprises this year.
The winners of the competition were announced after hundreds of nominations flooded in for a range of companies across the local area.
This year's winners were KD Fit in Kelso, Ryan Edgar Roofing and Jeanie's Coffee Shop in Gala, and Gifted in Eyemouth, with a special commendation for Borders Podiatry.
Scottish Borders MP, John Lamont, said: "Congratulations to all the worthy winners of this year's competition who each received vast numbers of nominations from the public.
"These awards celebrate the small enterprises who deliver some of the best service in the Borders.
"I would encourage everyone to check them out and to nominate their own favourite businesses next year so we can continue to recognise those workers and owners who are going above and beyond to serve their local community.
"If you can, please try to shop local this Christmas and help a small business around the Borders to thrive."
