FM+ shortlisted in prestigious Hull and Humber Chamber Business Awards

Thursday, September 1st, 2016

FM+ is delighted to have been shortlisted as a finalist in the prestigious 2016 Chamber Bridlington and Yorkshire Coast Business Awards in the category of Medium/Large Business of the Year.

The awards, which are organised and presented by the Hull & Humber Chamber of Commerce, have been running for more than 10 years and are renowned for giving local businesses the chance to be recognised for their achievements.

In selecting the finalists for the award, judges were looking for companies which could demonstrate solid sales performance and growth prospects, productivity development, product development and the use of technology, quality standards and monitoring, investment in people and equipment and environmental awareness.

James Needler, managing director of FM+, the overall brand under which companies including Contract Flooring Interiors (CFI) and Green Commercial Cleaning operate, says FM+ has ticked all boxes on the judging criteria over the past 12 months.

“It is really satisfying to look at the judging criteria for a major awards event such as this and be able to tick off every one as something the business has achieved over the past 12 months. It is hugely satisfying and makes you reflect on how much has been achieved,” he said.

“As a business, 2016 has been one of significant change and expansion for us, given that we have invested more than £1m into our new premises, and the move to unite all of our facilities management operations under the FM+ brand.

“Major investment has also been made into further improving our customer service through our FM+ Peace of Mind offer, which sees jobs schedules and details from all departments made available for our customers to view in real time

“This complete transparency gives added confidence and assurance to our customers over every aspect of our work, which is crucial given much facilities management work is undertaken out of office hours.

“Alongside the continual development of our staff, we are hopeful that we can pick up another prestigious award at the Bridlington Spa next month, to sit alongside the individual award Green Commercial Cleaning received last year at the Hull Daily Mail Business Awards for Customer Focus.”

The2016 Chamber Bridlington and Yorkshire Coast Business Awards will be held in the Royal Hall at the Bridlington Spa on Friday, October 14, 2016.
