DavyMarkham receives three business awards
DavyMarkham won the title Barclays Commercial Bank Outstanding Business of the Year, while its managing director, Kevin Parkin (pictured, right), was named Rensburg Sheppards Business Person of the Year.
The company also received the Creative Sheffield, Sheffield Champion Award for its work in promoting the city's manufacturing heritage and world-class products.
The 2009 Sheffield Business Awards had about 150 submissions for the fifteen different award categories, making it the biggest and best supported to date. Compered by TV personality Paul Ross at the Ponds Forge International Sports Centre, it was organised by the Sheffield Chamber of Commerce.
DavyMarkham enjoyed record sales revenue in 2009, increased its workforce numbers from 160 to 220 employees, improved internal communications and maintained its commitment to apprentice training.
The Outstanding Business of the Year was awarded for demonstrated commercial leadership and vision, as well as successful performance against business plan and Mr Parkin was recognised as Business Person Of The Year for his outstanding contribution to DavyMarkham's exceptional business performance.
The Sheffield Champion award was awarded for being an effective ambassador for the city and the Made In Sheffield symbol, which DavyMarkham proudly displays on its corporate branding and marketing material, as well as routinely playing host to visiting politicians, business groups, local organisations and schools. All of which contributed towards a highly proactive campaign on behalf of the city and its manufacturing expertise.
