Businesses across the South West and West Midlands make Sunday Times top 100 fastest growing companies list
Jeremy Clarkson's Hawkstone Brewery in Gloucestershire was the 24th fastest-growing company in the South West in this year's Sunday Times top 100 fastest growing companies list. The business grew by 142.88 per cent last year, with a turnover of £7.8 million.
The website describes Hawkstone as "the perfect blend of barley, belligerence and outright brewing skill".
At Number 39 in the listing is haircare brand Champo from Worcestershire (apparently - though our research shows that it's based in London - we will confirm this)
According to the company: Chämpo (pronounced shar-pour) is the Sanskrit origin of the word ‘shampoo'. Introduced to Britain from India over a century ago, this ancient practice of ‘cleansing, soothing and massaging the head and hair’ inspired our beginnings.
We create high performance formulas for a new generation of haircare consumer, combining ancient Ayurvedic principles with modern trichology and active botanicals to transform hair.
