Local business wins national award

Local business The Barber Club took out one of the top accolades at the annual Australian Hair Industry Awards (AHIA) last month.

Business owner Alex Tabakman travelled to Brisbane to attend the awards’ gala dinner, where he accepted the Best Barber Business award.

“I want to thank all of my staff and loyal clients for making this possible,” Mr Tabakman said.

“We have been nominated for this award for the past three years and we’ve finally won the big one,” he said.

The AHIA’s are the only business awards in the hair industry and winners were announced in 19 categories at the gala dinner last month.
