David Lenehan, Northern Industrial honoured at Young ’Uns Awards 2015
Lancashire’s young business people celebrated at Lancashire Business View’s Young ‘Uns Awards 2015 as the next generation of movers, shakers and decision makers were crowned at the wild west themed shindig held at Winter Gardens’ Spanish Ballroom in Blackpool.
From legal eagles to digital dynamos, red-hot retailers to globetrotting international traders, those making waves in business in the county were recognised across 13 categories including High Flying Young ’Un and the Young ’Un of 2015.
Amongst them was David Lenehan of Northern Industrial, winner of the Young ‘Un in International Trade award.
David said: “It’s brilliant. It’s capped off a good year for the company and I think it shows Lancashire is a great place to do business and that you can export worldwide.”
The awards were organised by Lancashire Business View magazine and backed by the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan), Boost Business Lancashire and the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB).
Richard Slater, publisher of Lancashire Business View, said: “The response we’ve had to the Young ‘Uns Awards 2015 has been terrific.
“Young ‘Uns started life as a feature in our magazine, profiling the sharpest business minds aged 36 and under. Eventually, we had so many fantastic stories that it became obvious we needed to honour them properly.”
Other sponsors include 3Man Factory, Barton Grange Hotel, Business Enterprise Trust, Denwa, Harrison Drury Solicitors, Preston’s College, Peter Scott Printers, Square Cactus, Sunshine Events, Vedas Recruitment and Winter Gardens Blackpool.
