What you need to know: Best of Tasmania 2020

Each year the Mercury runs a Best of Tasmania series to highlight the best local businesses as voted by our readers. Here’s how it works >>

• VOTE NOW: Tassie’s Cutest Bub for 2020
• Tassie’s Best Hairdresser and Salon
• Tassie’s Best Fish and Chips
• Tassie’s Best Tattoos

TASMANIA has so many incredible, homegrown businesses – some are new, some have been around forever.

The Mercury has started a campaign to highlight the best of these local businesses, as voted by you, our readers.

Each week we will put a question to our Facebook followers.

Readers are encouraged to nominate their favourite business and react to comments as a way of supporting that nomination.

The Mercury will tally up the nominations, and a journalist will them compile a premium article with a short list of nominees, and create a poll which people can vote in, publicised on Facebook.

To vote and keep the voting process fair, you must be a Mercury subscriber (this is to keep things to avoid multiple votes from any one business), and a business must achieve a certain number of nominations to quality.

A Mercury digital subscription only costs $1 a week for the first 12 weeks – or for the same price you can get the Saturday Mercury and the Sunday Tasmanian delivered for free, and $7 a week for daily delivery and a digital subscription.

A story featuring the winner will appear in the newspaper, our website and Facebook page over the following days.
