Dandy’s Topsoil is the winner of two prestigious Flintshire Business Awards – the Business Person of the year award (for Managing Director Adam Dandy), sponsored by Convatec; and the Young Entrepreneur award, sponsored by AGS Security Systems.
Flintshire-based Dandy’s Topsoil is an established producer and supplier of quality topsoil, general landscaping supplies and exclusive designer soil mixes. The company, which currently employs 20 people, recently relocated to a new six acre site on the Deeside Industrial Park.
AGS Security Systems sponsored the Young Entrepreneur Award – Managing Director, Jonathan Turner, explains how he made his decision:
“On balance, I chose Dandy’s as this year’s worthy winners because, since a change of Managing Director four years ago, they have gone through a sustained period of growth and expansion.
“They showed great ability to recognise new opportunities, providing a value for money proposition and, most importantly, demonstrated a return on investment.
“The quality of Dandy’s submission is also worthy of note; not only did it meet all criteria with detailed tangible content, they went the extra mile producing a document of the absolute highest quality.”
ConvaTec sponsored the Business Person of the Year Award – the company’s vice president of manufacturing in the UK, Robbie Heginbotham, explains why they chose Adam Dandy as the winner:
“At ConvaTec, we believe our success comes from the three pillars on which our company was built. Strong and solid heritage, a passion for improving peoples lives and a vision of what can be.
“Adam has demonstrated his vision for the company built on a solid heritage. He has also taken the company through a great period of growth and expansion based on his key objectives and his relentless drive for the highest customer service.”
