SECURITY SOLUTIONS SHORTLISTED FOR 2016 E3 BUSINESS AWARDS
Bolton based Perimeter Security Manufacturer Security Solutions has been shortlisted as a finalist in the 2016 E3 Business Awards, which will be held at the Macron Stadium in Bolton on Friday 3rd June.
The company, which are one of the UK’s leading manufacturers and installers of perimeter security equipment, was selected from amongst hundreds of nominees to become one of the finalists for the prestigious Manufacturing Business of the Year category.
Speaking on behalf of the company, Managing Director, Andrew Davies said: “Being shortlisted as finalist for Manufacturer of the Year by E3 Business Awards has concluded a remarkable 12 months for Security Solutions, we recently completed the manufacture and installation of 96 turnstiles and SR2 Security Doors at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. It was a strategic decision some years ago to become a bespoke design manufacturer this meant we could offer a fully rounded service that is totally under our control, to be recognised as one of the best North West manufacturing firms is an amazing achievement.”
“Each year, it becomes more of an achievement to win a finalist’s place,” said Mubarak Chati, managing director of 1 Events Media, which hosts the E3 Awards. “Every year since we’ve started, we’ve seen an increase in nominations and a corresponding increase in quality. This year, across all sixteen award categories, we’ve seen an increase of around 25% on last year. That’s on top of last year’s increase which was itself up more than 30% on 2014.
“We’ve had nominations from throughout the North West and we’ve seen real strength in all areas. One of the big surprises has been the number of entries from social enterprises. We had so many, in fact, that we decided to introduce a seventeenth award category, specifically for charities. It’s always been a key purpose of the Awards to celebrate the achievement of all parts of the community – not just the mainstream – so to see charities, young entrepreneurs and women coming forward in such numbers is very gratifying indeed.
“Given the number and the high standard of entries, we certainly gave the Nominations Panel a difficult job. They have risen to the challenge, though, and their final selections represent the very best of the whole North West region. For Security Solutions to have been named as a finalist for 2016 is an achievement of which it should be very proud.”
