AG FLOORS THE COMPETITION WITH TRIO OF UK AND IRELAND AWARDS…
AGscoops threemajor construction awards
A G – leading paving and building supplies company – has won three major industry awards in quick succession across the UK and Ireland. Established 60 years ago, AG is a third generation family-owned business which now employs more than 230 people at eight locations across the UK and Ireland. The first accolade was winning the Property and Construction Family Business of the Year category at the Energia Family Business Awards. The Energia Awards showcase the commercial success of Irish family companies and highlights the impact their business has on communities. The company was recognised at the ceremony for having navigated two major economic downturns, before emerging with a fit-for- purpose business model, which has seen it deliver strong financial performances. The second award - from The
MPA and British Precast for Safer Management of Pedestrian and Transport on its sites – provided positive proof of AG’s excellent work within Health and Safety. Meanwhile, AG received a Distinction Award at the NISO (National Irish Safety Organisation) and NISG (Northern Ireland Safety Group) Safety Awards for 2021. Winning this award demonstrates the commitment and dedication of all AG employees and contractors to safety within the company. Stephen Acheson, CEO at AG, said winning the three major awards was fitting recognition of the outstanding work everyone at AG has been doing. “We are extremely proud to receive these three prestigious awards,” Stephen said. “With everything that has happened since the first lockdown, it is truly amazing to be able to share these awards with everyone at AG.”
“Since we first opened over 60 years ago, we have held family values and health and safety at the core of our business operations. We plan to continue our focus in these areas while maintaining our community work and investment in the training and development of our staff.” AG has also had a promising start to 2022 as they have been shortlisted for the Innovation award at the ICE (Irish Construction Excellence) Awards 2022 for its Woodward Facing Brick.
