Accepting the award was owner and Managing Director Simon Woods who commented:

“We are proud to be recognised for our export business success, which represents a majority proportion of our revenue. I accept this award on behalf of the TecQuipment family, including the team of staff in our Long Eaton Headquarters, suppliers, and 60 plus agents that we partner with around the world.”

The judges of the Midlands Business Awards noted the company’s innovative strategies in export growth, citing particular success in Sub-Saharan Africa and South America.

Woods adds: “Winning the award does not mean that we are going to rest on our laurels. We have ambitious plans for growth that involve new products, expanding the team and moving into more territories.”
