"When you have been through such a demanding period of product and sebsequent sales development, to have that achievement recognised externally in this way is just fantastic!" - Ecotek M.D. Tim Lindley.
The Sheffield Business Awards were hosted by Sheffield Chamber of Commerce Chief Executive Nigel Tomlinson and the Editor of The Star, Alan Powell. Mr Powell told The Star:
"There is little doubt that everyone here tonight recognises the tough economic times we are now in. But that should not stop us honouring the individuals and organisations who contribute to ensuring the city punches its weight and more."
This is the second award that Ecotek have collected in four weeks.
