DAVID HEATH MP SUPPORTS MANUFACTURING EXCELLENCE 2009 IN SOMERTON AND FROME

5.01.30pm GMT Thu 13th Nov 2008

David Heath, MP for Somerton and Frome, is urging local businesses in the area to enter the UK's most prestigious business awards scheme. Firms have until January 29 to enter the battle for the 'Best UK Business' at the Institution of Mechanical Engineers' Manufacturing Excellence awards 2009.

Dubbed the 'Oscars' of the business world, the Manufacturing Excellence Awards are free for any firm to enter and is the only best practice benchmarking scheme of its kind. As well as the recognition and chance to be named the best British business, applicants will be invited to share and learn best practice and receive free advice on how to improve their business from industry experts. Deadline for entry is January 29 2009.

David said:

"I would like to encourage any firm, of any size to enter these awards. These awards are known as the international hallmark of best practice.

I feel it's so important that as an MP I support manufacturing and help businesses in my constituency and this scheme offers the guidance to help businesses flourish."
