Congratulations to Linda Kneale and Claudia Konig, who were both winners on the Mantons Cards Thank You Customers Day, held to celebrate Mantons being named as one of the UK's 100 most influential small businesses by the Daily Telegraph.

Linda was the winner of a giant Yoohoo worth ?100 donated by Mantons to a raffle to raise funds for local charity Crossroads.

All Mantons customers on the day were offered a free cup cake and raffle ticket and Claudia was delighted to be the winner of the Mantons Gift Hamper.

After being named as a Small Business 100 company every chosen business is given a day to organise something special and be promoted across social media by Small Business Saturday. This led to Mantons being congratulated by Westminster MP Chuka Umunna.

"As well as raising money for The Crossroads Charity, the team at Mantons wanted to use the day as a massive thank you to our customers who have supported us over the years" commented owner Chris Beards. "It's only because of the support from the people of the Island that we have been able to constantly improve and win so many prestigious awards."

"After winning British Independent Retailer of the Year in May, everyone at Mantons was delighted to be named as a Small Business 100 company, especially as we are the only Manx company to ever achieve this honour," continued Chris Beards. "For the Mantons team this is well deserved recognition for all the hard work, effort and commitment to excellence and to helping our customers, which is something all of the team at Mantons takes great pride in."
