Inaugural awards a success


The inaugural winners of the Sutton Coldfield, Lichfield and Tamworth Business of the Year awards are celebrating after being announced at a special business dinner at the Belfry hotel. The Sutton Coldfield Business of the Year


award was won by assistance fund and trust management firm Auriga Services, and IT specialist First Class Technologies was the Lichfield winner. Last but not least was the Tamworth award,


won jointly by sealant, coating and primer manufacturer Apollo Chemicals and family restaurant Roasters. More than 250 guests attended the HSBC-


sponsored event, which was held jointly by the Sutton Coldfield and Lichfield & Tamworth Chambers of Commerce. GBCC chief operating officer Russell Jeans,


who led the awards judging panel, said: “The inaugural New Year Business Dinner was a resounding success and hopefully it will go on to become an important part of the Greater Birmingham business calendar.”
