Hide AdRob Watt, author of the North West Business Insider 's North West Rich List said: "These rankings showcase the business leaders and entrepreneurs who are continuing to make hay.
"But our new entries often prove most interesting. After the bursting of the tech bubble over the past 18 months, this year’s debutants include those who have built fortunes from more everyday products, including plumbing supplies, timber, furniture and milk."
The much anticipated list will undoubtedly feature brothers Mohsin and Zuber Issa from Blackburn. The pair are the driving force behind Euro Garages and Asda.
Other big names expected to appear include:
- Mahmud Kamani of Bohoo fashion fame in Burnley,
