Barum & Dewar are delighted to have been shortlisted for three awards at this year’s North Devon Business Awards. The three categories are:

Made in North Devon

B&D have a long association with North Devon and are delighted to have been considered for these awards. A team from B&D look forward to attending the Awards Dinner on 5^th May.

Heading to Scotland to attend this year’s Entrepreneurial Scotland Annual Conference will be a senior team from Barum & Dewar.

An entrepreneurial spirit is deep rooted in B&D and as a member of the ES Leaders Exchange, MD David Frame has long recognised the benefits to be gained from joining with fellow entrepreneurs at this “go to” event.

By inviting key members of the B&D team to join him at this year’s Conference David hopes to share with them the enthusiasm and passion for business that the event inspires.

Having been selected as one of twenty to participate in the pioneering Growth Advantage Programme (GAP), B&D Managing Director, David Frame graduated last month from Strathclyde Business School.

The Programme which was developed by the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship at Strathclyde Business School is the first of its kind in Scotland combining research-based ‘useful learning’, with useful insight from some of Scotland’s most influential entrepreneurs, including Sir Tom Hunter.

GAP is the country’s first dedicated core growth programme designed for and specifically aimed at ambitious entrepreneurs and business owners looking to scale up their businesses. GAP gives participants the opportunity to learn how to grow their business further while building relationships and expanding their network. The Programme aims to enable entrepreneurs and growth-focused business owners to realise their organisation’s full potential.

The K 424 XC Mobile Box Office is perfectly tailored for use in the office or by external sales staff. The dimensions have been designed so that hanging file folders (integrated DIN 821 holder inside the box) and folders fit perfectly inside. There is also a telescopic handle on the front so that the box barely has to be tipped when it is being transported. Thanks to the integrated locks, the contents can be stored and transported very securely.

The new office box is ideal for external sales staff who present documents or product samples; architects or site managers on building sites; people who give seminars or training sessions; and tax advisers, auditors and lawyers who have to carry documents with them.

A range of accessories allows the fittings to be adapted to accommodate individual requirements.

Practical for work.

Access documents, even with limited space available.

Secure transportation – including for confidential documents.

Pulling instead of carrying, even on uneven surfaces such as construction sites.

Rolls quietly and smoothly thanks to specially designed 50 mm wheels made from polyurethane and polyamide.

Stacking corners made from shock-resistant plastic and integrated stacking elements in the supporting frame.

Corrugated, including on the corners, for additional dimensional stability.

Fully foam-sealed lid to protect against dust and splashes of water.

Optional set of 125 mm wheels for all-terrain use available.

Barum & Dewar (B&D) are pleased to release advanced information on an exciting new addition to its current range of 19” rack cases.
