Awards at Alexanders.
Alexanders Removals and Storage Ltd, of London NW10, was one of only seven finalists shortlisted for Small Business of The Year at The Business Excellence Awards 2012 presented at the gala awards dinner at Shendish Manor, near Hemel Hempstead.
Each year the Business Excellence Awards are open to businesses in a range of sizes and sectors in seven award categories. The directors at Alexanders were delighted to be short-listed for the award. “To be finalists in these awards is an amazing recognition and one that everyone who works here at Alexanders deserves. We know that the key to success is to have an impressive product, which for us means an excellent removal service for every customer, and this is what all our staff help to deliver,” said Co-director Alex Pope.
The prestigious ceremony was attended by the directors of Alexanders and representatives of staff from sales, logistics and finance. They chatted with representatives from other businesses and enthusiastically cheered the directors when receiving their certificate from Krishnan Guru-Murthy, the award-winning anchor of Channel 4 News at Noon and Jackie Withey of sponsor Alliotts.
“It was entertaining to hear the experiences of the keynote speaker, Nikki King, who starred recently in Channel Four’s Undercover Boss,” said Co-director Samantha Pope, “Nikki’s story of how she became managing director at Isuzu Trucks in the face of considerable challenges was very inspiring."
Alexanders has ambitious growth plans. The experience of entering the award this year has been such a positive one that Alexanders intends to enter the Business Excellence Awards again next year.
Alexanders Removals and Storage Limited were the winners of the ‘Employer of the Year’ Award at the 2010 Park Royal Partnership Business Awards.
