This is one of the most prestigious and demanding competitions and attracts top class entrants from all over the UK�.
Awards are presented to the companies that serve their customers best - through people and systems. The judges, who visit the plants of the finalists, look at the Vision, Values and Leadership of each company, the way it involves its people, the speed at which it reacts to changing circumstances, the degree to which it understands its customers and its operational effectiveness. �To win this award judged against these criteria is recognition of the hard work that our staff put in to provide our customers with the best service possible�, added Mr Croker.
John Pring was established in 1834, making wire products. The last four years have been some of the most successful in the company�s history, culminating in the company being acquired in 1999 by one of the world�s leading wire specialists, Leggett and Platt Inc., USA. �It has been a difficult few years but we have worked together, found new customers and new markets. We now share this success. We export our products all over the world. Obviously our customers appreciate us, and our victory in this prestigious competition shows why�, concluded Mr Croker
