Timsons marks Queen's Award for Enterprise
Timsons, the manufacturer of web offset book presses, was presented with the Queens Award for Enterprise at a ceremony held at its Kettering headquarters last Friday (5 July).
It learned of the award in April, when it was recognised for outstanding achievement in international trade.
In the last three years, its overseas earnings have increased by 80% and represent three-quarters of its total turnover.
Employees from Timsons and around 100 guests attended the ceremony, along with representatives from the pivotal overseas sales groups from North America, Italy, France, Finland, Spain and Ghana.
Lady Juliet Townsend, the Lord Lieutenant of Northamptonshire, presented the scroll to managing director Peter Brown and a commemorative bowl to director Jane Brown.
