If you’re someone who gets a giggle out of a pun-tastic business name, this top 10 list of witty titles will be right up your street.
They have been chosen as Britain’s best business names by a panel of judges from hundreds of entries submitted during a competition run by London-based utilities switching service Make It Cheaper, with help from the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB).
Have a laugh at these:
Bill’s Gates – Buckinghamshire – automated gate installations
Full Proof – Cheshire – proof reading service
Jason Donervan – Bristol – fast food van
Making You Content – Manchester – content creation service
Mud, Sweat and Gears – Dorset – bike shop
Father Treads – Liverpool – mechanics
Spruce Springclean – Cornwall – cleaners
Surelock Homes – Hampshire – locksmiths
The Hip Hop Chip Shop – Manchester – fish and chip van
Tree Wise Men – London – tree surgeon
You’ll notice there’s a London entry in there, Tree Wise Men based in Barnet, so that probably deserves you support but the others are fine efforts too.
A vote is on to decide to the best of the best, with the winning entry receiving a £1,000 business improvement package.
UPDATE: The winner of the award was Full Proof.
