Advanced Supply Chain has been named in the London Stock Exchange’s 1000 Companies to Inspire Britain for the second year running.
The accolade highlights the Bradford company’s rapid growth within the logistics industry, in which it provides clients with global end-to-end supply chain solutions.
The London Stock Exchange’s annual report identifies small and medium-sized businesses that are showing innovative techniques and creating new jobs to lead the UK in reviving and driving the economy. Advanced Supply Chain is made up of two businesses that were featured in the list as separate entities, Advanced Processing Ltd and Advanced Forwarding Ltd.
Once confirmed as eligible, companies were judged on their annual growth and were included in the list when they had been identified as outperforming their sector averages.
Mike Danby, CEO at Advanced Supply Chain said: 'To be included in the list once again is an honour and a true reflection of our commitment to innovation, customer service and growth. We are driven to maximise efficiencies for our customers and maintain our position within the industry.
'I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the team at Advanced Supply Chain for the absolute dedication in reaching to be the best.'
The list is part of London Stock Exchange’s broader campaign to support fast growing companies in their journey from start-up to success, encouraging a strong entrepreneurial spirit within the UK. Xavier Rolet, Chief Executive of London Stock Exchange said: 'I’m delighted that a strong alliance between UK Government, financial market participants, investors, entrepreneurs and companies has been created to support these inspiring businesses.'
