Priory Business Group PLC climbs 12 places in the MegaGrowth 50
Paddock Wood-based Priory Business Group PLC is celebrating having gained 27th place in the MegaGrowth 50, announced on 6th October in Maidstone - at an event attended by around 150 business people and guests. Priory climbed 12 places from its 39th position last year.
This is the 10th anniversary announcement of Kent's high growth companies. MegaGrowth 50 is produced by the KM Group in association with Lloyds TSB Commercial and Reeves, the accountancy firm. All of the 50 firms listed in the 2011 table received a framed certificate.
"We are delighted to have climbed up the MegaGrowth 50," said Bob Pitman, Managing Director of Priory Business Group PLC. "It highlights the fact that during this difficult economic period, we have continued to stick to our core businesses and buck the trend. We put this down to keeping our customers at the centre of everything we do."
He continued: "We really enjoyed the event and the opportunity to meet other businesses which are continuing to grow and expand in Kent. It is always good to share ideas and compare notes. Priory was launched in Kent more than 20 years ago and we continue to be committed to this county."
Added Geraldine Allinson, KM Group chairman: "It seems incredible that 10 years have gone by since we started these Awards. They continue to show that our business community is innovative, strong and successful - and, most importantly, that Kent is a fabulous place in which to grow a business."
