ACS Business Supplies in Baildon have recently been named as ‘One to Watch’ in Europe in a list of business excellence published by the European Business Awards, one of world’s largest and longest-running business competitions.

Mirroring the programme’s core values of innovation, success and ethics, ACS was chosen because they were able to demonstrate exceptional achievement in their entry for The Workplace and People Development Award, one of the 18 European Business Awards’ categories.

Mike Hussain, managing director, said “I am delighted that ACS has been recognised in this category at the European Business Awards. People are at the core of our business and our aim has always been to ensure that they are engaged, supported and appreciated. Winning would be a great testament to our strategy and ongoing investment into our unique culture and workplace development.”

Adrian Tripp, CEO of the European Business Awards, said: “The companies chosen as ‘Ones to Watch’ are the most inspirational, successful and dynamic in Europe. The talent and tenacity at the heart of these businesses creates jobs and drives Europe’s prosperity. This ‘Ones to Watch’ list of excellence is a benchmark of success for the rest of the European business community.”

Companies on the ‘Ones to Watch’ list come from all sectors; from manufacturing to retail, agriculture to technology, and all sizes; from start-ups to billion Euro businesses.

ACS are now competing to become a National UK Winner. If successful, we will then take part in the Gala Final in December 2019, where the final 18 European winners will be announced.
