It has been an exciting month for Midland Lead, which has won H&B group’s Supplier of the Year, and been shortlisted for two Burton Mail Business Awards.

The lead manufacturer was recently awarded the Peter Buttle Supplier of the Year Award from buying group H&B, beating five other finalists.

And now the company has also been nominated for Medium Business of the Year, and its Regional Sales Manager Kyle Hazeldine has been nominated for Young Employee of the year in the Burton Mail Business Awards, which celebrate the best businesses across East Staffordshire and South Derbyshire.

A panel of industry experts will judge the finalists, and the winners will be announced in a gala awards evening in the Pirelli Stadium in Burton-on-Trent on 18 October.

Midland Lead’s Sales and Marketing Manager Lynn Street (pictured) said: “I am hugely proud of this achievement for our company. The last nine months have seen a lot of positive changes for Midland Lead, and the award is another indication that we are continuing to move in the right direction.

“We strive to show that the ability to provide excellent customer service exists within us all at Midland Lead.”
