Double win for Bristol firm at national awards
Posted on 21/08/2017
A Bristol firm has scooped two awards at the prestigious National Family Business Awards, which were held in London.
Previously known as the Red Ribbon Awards, the National Family Business Awards were rebranded in 2017 to reflect its growing reputation for discovering and recognising the most outstanding family businesses throughout all four corners of the UK.
Almeda Facilities Ltd walked away with two awards at the event.
Managing Director Brady George picked up the award for Entrepreneur of the Year and Almeda also received the Big Heart award, which recognises efforts in improving CSR and building towards a more sustainable business and their efforts in improving the environment in the local community.
Almeda has become synonymous with being passionate about managing a conscious and sustainable office environment. Staff actively support local stakeholders, communities and environmental projects, and are given free health and exercise classes.
The business and Brady’s efforts in CSR were previously recognised at the 2016 IoD Awards – where Brady won the Corporate Social Responsibility award – and he is thrilled the business has triumphed again in a category of this kind.
Brady comments: “Delivering a sustainable and high-quality service to our customers is a number one priority for us. Our employees jump at the chance to get involved with in-house wellbeing schemes and have also put in the time and effort for various community-led projects in and around Bristol
“I’d like to thank every Almeda employee for their endless determination in creating a sustainable and prosperous business model for ourselves and our clients.”
