A TRAFFORD footwear company that has a shop in Hale is in the running for a national award - for the second year running.

Shoetique, a family run business which also has an office and warehouses in Altrincham, has been nominated for Independent Footwear Retailer Of The Year at the Drapers Footwear Awards to be held in Park Lane at the end of June.

Shoetique won this award in 2015 and the company says it is delighted to be nominated again in 2016, proving its service and selection of brands and styles are second to none.
