Conservatory Outlet Wakefield has been recognised as ‘Manufacturer of the Year 2018’ at the Wakefield Manufacturing Awards. The company was presented its trophy at the high-profile ceremony which took place on 4 October – reported to be the first ever event to solely recognise and celebrate excellence in manufacturing across Wakefield and the wider District.
Specialising in the design and manufacture of high-quality windows, doors and living spaces, Conservatory Outlet says it was selected for the top award by judges for the way in which it adds value to its service offering for its network of customers and works so closely with its supply chain to achieve growth.
The judges were also said to be impressed with the company’s efforts to embed its new vision and values across the business, and for its investment in training and workforce development to ensure the long-term future and security of the firm and its team.
According to Conservatory Outlet, innovation is at the core of the company’s culture; the team has embarked on its biggest product launch to date during 2018, introducing a new suite of products – the ‘Extreme Collection’ of windows and doors – with ‘outstanding success’.
Supported by a bespoke suite of marketing material for each of its customers, Conservatory Outlet Wakefield is anticipating that the roll-out of the Extreme Collection during the latter part of 2018 and into 2019 will lead to yet further significant growth.
The Wakefield Manufacturing Awards were organised by the Wakefield Manufacturing Forum to recognise and pay homage to a vital sector in the District.
