It's ten in a row for award winning Offaly company For the 10th successive year, Glenisk has been named as a Best Managed Company by management consultant Deloitte. The awards, which are presented by Deloitte in association with Bank of Ireland, are in their 14th year. In order to win the award for another year, Glenisk had to satisfy eligibility criteria and go through a requalification review process in order to ensure that the companies continue to uphold the Best Managed standard. The award comes a year after a fire destroyed the Glenisk production plant in Newtown. The company managed to get a milk processing and packaging facility up and running again immediately and by early this year had restored some yogurt production lines. Speaking about the award winners, Harry Goddard CEO, Deloitte Ireland and judging panel member said: “A stand out from the judging process this year was the distinct focus of the Best Managed Companies on their local communities, despite their own international growth and ambition. Businesses have a vital role to play in our society. It was clear from the entries this year that they were having a positive impact not only on their own business, but also on the communities around them. I look forward to seeing how these businesses continue to invest, grow and contribute to our wider society.” This year, Deloitte recognised 136 indigenous companies at the awards representing 25 of the 32 counties across Ireland.
