We are delighted to announce that, after being presented with the runner-up award for Business of the Year 2021 last year at the Brentwood Business Awards, Zest Recycle has now taken home the Business of the Year 2022 award!
At the awards ceremony on Friday 7th October, we were awarded the Business of the Year 2022 award, as well as Best SME, on account of our strong vision and tremendous growth over the past 12 months.
The Brentwood Business Awards 2022 is sponsored by Pinney Talfourd Solicitors and aims to highlight the top businesses within the Brentwood area and recognise the strongest, most innovating and most determined businesses and people within Brentwood.
All finalists are automatically shortlisted for the Business of the Year 2022 award, which we are incredibly proud to have won on the night. This is an amazing achievement for us as a small business, and a strong indication of our commitment to our local community.
We also won the Best SME award, which was sponsored by You and I Care. You and I Care is an award-winning home care provider, offering affordable solutions for adults and the elderly throughout the community. You and I Care recognised how we’ve been making meaningful connections, finding sustainable solutions, and building long-lasting partnerships while building our business steadily over the last year.
"I am delighted that Zest Recycle have been awarded the Overall Business of the Year at this years Brentwood Business Awards alongside our initial Best SME category win.
There are a great amount of businesses that are doing fantastic work based within our local area, from SMEs like ourselves all the way through to global businesses headquartered in Brentwood.
To beat out a lot of this superb competition and better our result from last year's awards is a testament to the efforts our whole team put in to delivering for our clients and in turn the business.
We are committed to pushing on with our endeavours to support our local community through the work that we do here at Zest, and an award win such as this puts us firmly in the minds of our local business partners for the long term."
Tony McPartland, Managing Director
"It's a great honour to be recognised by our business peers for the work we have achieved over the last 12 months. If our win at last year's awards for Best Sales and Marketing Strategy gave us the validation that we're on the right track to develop our business, then this year's recognition demonstrates our plan in action.
Winning both Best SME and Overall Business of the Year this year will provide additional energy to accelerate our plans into the new financial year, aligned with our business strategy. We will seek to build on our recent achievements, including joining the Good Business Charter and becoming a National Living Wage accredited employer, recent industry award wins (which include two Green Apple Awards), and grow our business through Corporate and SME new businesses to build our fresh and vibrant brand with new service offerings launched to market over the coming months.
We would like to congratulate our other finalists, and thank Brentwood Chamber of Commerce for such a great evening."
Roland Archer, Sales Director
We’d like to thank Brentwood Chamber of Commerce for organising a stunning event and hosting us, as well as the awards sponsor Pinney Talfourd and the awards sponsors who helped with making this event happen.
