Shortlisted as a finalist in three categories at the recent North Devon Business Awards, Barum & Dewar were delighted to pick up one of the top awards - 2016 Small Business of the Year.

In this category judges were looking for all round business excellence with strong leadership, innovation, product development, customer engagement and staff training just some of the areas of scrutiny. In Barum & Dewar they said they were “blown away” with the work undertaken by B&D both in terms of the technical nature of many of its products and the high levels of client engagement involved.

MD, David Frame commented: “This award is a fitting tribute to the commitment of all the team at Barum & Dewar who are not only passionate about delivering the very best in packaging solutions to all our clients but seek to do so in an engaging and collaborative manner. B&D is a growth focussed entrepreneurial business who relish the challenges our clients set us and our ability to deliver cost effective yet technically innovative solutions is a key reason why clients partner with us”

Barum & Dewar were finalists in two other categories: Made in North Devon and Excellence in Customer Service.
