Double win for MFT

Made For Trade has won two awards at the North East Business Awards, one for ‘Manufacturing’ and the other for ‘High Growth and Ambition’.

MFT has also been shortlisted for Company of the Year, the winner of which will be announced at Hardwick Hall, Sedgefield, at the end of September.

The North East Business Awards are designed to celebrate the achievements of organisations in the region, including those that enrich local areas, bring new employment prospects and boost the local economy, as well as making the North East a better place to live, work or conduct business.

Made For Trade’s operations director, Chris Wann, commented: “It was an incredible evening; this is the first time that Made for Trade have entered regional awards, and to be recognised and achieve two awards that reflect where we are as a business today was better that we could have imagined.

“It was incredibly humbling to be part of an awards ceremony that represents the local and regional talent and high quality of the businesses we have here in the North East. Our congratulations to the winners and all shortlisted businesses that participated in this year’s event.”

Building on the success of its multi-award winning Korniche roof lantern, Made For Trade has applied the same engineering-led ethos to its new Korniche bi-folding door system. The Wynyard-based business has also introduced a re-brand, new ISO9001 certification and the opening of an in-house showroom.
