Best of Potch Awards reward excellence

The best in business were celebrated at the 2026 Best of Potch Reader’s Choice Awards held at the Elgro Hotel and Conference Centre in Potchefstroom.

The top businesses from Potchefstroom gathered for the third annual 2026 Best of Potch Readers’ Choice Awards event held at the Elgro Hotel and Conference Centre this morning (Friday, 8 May).

There were 67 winners from seven main categories, which included automotive, eat and drink, health, beauty and wellness, home improvements, hospitality, retail and services.

The Potchefstroom Herald team who organised and hosted the 2026 Best of Potch awards: Wouter Pienaar (editor), Kaylene Buthelezi (classifieds representative), Antoinette Badenhorst (sales manager), Lihana Moos (debtors clerk), Irene Moses (sales representative) and Tania Coetzee (journalist).

Readers and clients had the opportunity to nominate their favourite businesses and then vote for them. The businesses that received the most votes from the Potch community were declared the winners.
