Weighing and packaging equipment specialist, Ishida Europe has won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise, the UK’s highest accolade for business success. The company has received its award for International Trade.
“This is an outstanding achievement and is the result of the hard work and dedication of all our employees,” comments Ishida Europe's managing director Graham Clements.
“From our establishment in 1984, we have always recognised that we operate in a global market and established a business model that ensures our customers receive the same high standards of service and support wherever they are in the world. Coupled with our market-leading equipment and pro-active new product development programme, these have helped to drive our success even in the recent troubled economic times.”
To meet growing demand for its products throughout the world, Ishida Europe has now opened a new administrative centre next door to its headquarters in Woodgate, Birmingham, which will house its sales and support functions. This will enable the company to further expand its manufacturing operations at its existing premises. In addition, over the past two years, the company has increased its number of employees at Woodgate from 267 to 335.
