Testimonials

Merit has been part of the North East business landscape for a number of years now. Taking home the Company of the Year award in 2018 was such an achievement and we were so proud to have been recognised for this accolade. The awards’ entry process is easy to follow – from completing the awards submission to the judging process – it was all a pleasure! The recognition we have gained from participating in the process means that we have raised our profile in the region and of course we also get the chance to regularly mention that we were awarded North East Company of the Year!

Vicki McGregor Sales & Marketing Manager, Merit
The North East Business Awards are, without doubt, the region’s most prestigious honours and are always keenly contested by a diverse range of companies. They are worthy recognition for outstanding businesses.

John McCabe, President North East England Chamber of Commerce, (Fusion PR Creative)
We had never entered any awards before, but when we heard about the North East Business Awards, and specifically the ‘Let’s Grow’ category, we decided to give it a go.
We entered for a number of reasons but primarily it was to help the business, and its team, gain recognition in the region for its massive achievements attained in its short time of trade and to gain brand recognition. It’s not just about the award itself, however, the pre and post-show marketing and PR received were great assets for brand building and the awards night itself a stunning showcase of great North East businesses, and a great opportunity to share our success with our team and clients by hosting a table.
