Now in it's 12th year, the Made in the North East Awards are a fantastic opportunity to showcase the quality products and services that manufacturing and engineering companies supply and the skilled people that work for them.

With 11 categories, the Manufacturer of the Year (Under £25m) aims to recognise the achievements of the region’s manufacturing companies who have demonstrated excellence and made an outstanding contribution to the manufacturing sector in the region during the past 12 months.

Andrew Howe, Operations Director at Turnmill commented, "It's brilliant to be shortlisted for this award for a second year running, and is great testament to the full team here at Turnmill. The past 12 months have been a year of significant growth for us, and to be recognised is a great achievement in itself."

The ceremony will take place on Thursday 14th March at the Hilton Gateshead, with the winner automatically going through to the national final later this year.
