Small Company of the Year

05-Dec-2011

Sponsored by: Silverstone Search & Selection

This award is presented to the best small UK food or drink manufacturer – typically employing fewer than 100 people and with a turnover of less than £10M a year.

Winner: Moguntia Food Ingredients

Privately owned blending company Moguntia won praise from the judges for its impressive organic growth.

The bespoke seasonings and spice blends firm doubled its turnover from £4.5M in 2007, to a projected £9.2M this year. This impressive growth was driven by a rise in orders from existing customers in traditional and new business sectors, as well as from new customers.

Its adoption of modern production methodologies, such as lean manufacturing, together with focused investment have helped the company raise output by 51% with 10% fewer workers.

Shortlisted: American Muffin Company, Finnebrogue, Moguntia Food Ingredients and Lossie Seafoods
