Four features of the Growth Company of the Year

Growing a successful business is no easy feat, but it is an achievement that’ll garner you high praise at the inaugural Hampshire Business Awards. 

Sponsored by Gurkha Security Services, the Growth Company of the Year celebrates businesses that have demonstrated impressive growth in terms of turnover and profitability over the last three years. 

To be named the winner of such a hotly contested category is a testament to the hard work and dedication of your entire team and celebrates the success of a business that is poised for continued growth and success. 

So how exactly will the worthy winner be decided? Here are four things that our judges will be looking at: 

Your vision for continued success – while the growth you’ve experienced so far will catch our judges’ attention, what will really impress them is your plan for further growth in the future. Knowing where you want to go and how you’re going to get there is important for any developing business. 

How have you maintained the quality of your business – the Growth Company of the Year will be one that makes no exceptions in the quality of its products, services and management. Prioritising customer and employee satisfaction while growing your business is a vital part of ensuring that you’re not sacrificing culture for success. 

How have you supported employee development – a good business grows with its people. Consideration for your employees and their pride in their positions will be instrumental in becoming the winner of this award. Implementing training initiatives and inclusivity programs are great examples of supporting the development of your employees. 

The physical expansion of your business – there are many ways to measure the growth of a business, and our judges will be taking them all into consideration. From the number of employees and the increasing turnover to geographical expansions and widening client networks, every factor of your business will be compiled during the judging process.
