About Best of Ladysmith
Best of Ladysmith is a community-driven recommendations platform showcasing local businesses that residents trust most. Each year, the community votes for their favourite businesses across a wide range of categories, helping locals and visitors discover where to eat, shop, and do business with confidence.
Part of the long-running Best of Readers’ Choice Awards by Northern Natal News and Caxton local newspapers, Best of Ladysmith builds on more than 30 years of recognising excellence in communities across South Africa — connecting customers with businesses known for quality, service, and reliability.
Voting Is Closed for 2026. Thank you for taking the time to cast your votes.
Winners will be announced on Friday, 28 August 2026.
