Late June saw us complete a hat-trick of award shortlists with the news that we have been nominated for ‘Business of the Year’ in the Stockport Business Awards, following on from the Customer Experience and Moneyfacts awards we announced recently!

The Stockport Business Awards celebrate business excellence within the Borough of Stockport, of which our head office in Cheadle is a part, and aim to foster a strong business community within the area.

The award that we have been shortlisted for is ‘Business of the Year’ among firms with a turnover of £5 million or more, and we are hopeful that we will progress on to win! The award ceremony will take place at Stockport Town Hall on Thursday 11^th October, where the winners will be announced.

Our Head of Distribution, Antony Uttley, commented on the third award nomination in a month:

“To be nominated in our local borough of Stockport for Business of the Year is a great achievement for Shepherds Friendly, and rounds off a brilliant month of award nominations for us.

“The Society really is going from strength-to-strength and so to be recognised for this by a range of awards is fantastic for everyone here”.
