We are delighted to announce that UPL have been recognised as Manufacturer of the Year and also the top accoldade of Business of the Year at the 2012 BIBA awards* hosted by the North West Chamber of Commerce.
The nominees for these awards were the very best of North West companies and we are therefore very proud that UPL were successful in winning not one but two of these awards.
After the winners were announced UPL's Managing Director, Mike Peters commented:
"Our customers have won many awards for their products, which of course are formulated and manufactured by us, so it gives me great pleasure that on this occasion the UPL team has been recognised for their creativity, productivity and their contribution to the local community, and the industry we serve proudly.
"It is a credit to everyone at UPL that the great work we have done in recent years has been recognised by the North West Chamber of Commerce in this way and we are both delighted and privileged to be in the company of the other finalists who have clearly worked so hard throughout the current economic downturn."
The awards officially opened Preston’s Guild Week and the ceremony was held in the Big Top on Avenham Park on 31 st August. In attendance on the night was a cross section of UPL’s team who all went up on stage to receive the awards and a team photo.
