The Entrepreneur of the Year Award is presented annually by the Entrepreneurs Association of Ängelholm. Ahead of this year’s awards ceremony, Balustradedesign has been named one of three finalists in the running to win the award.
The award is presented to an entrepreneur who has made a significant contribution to their community and who, through their conduct, serves as a role model for other entrepreneurs.
“It’s obviously extremely exciting to once again be recognised for the successes we’ve had. 2015 was an absolutely fantastic year for us, and I suppose that might be the reason we made it to the finals,” says Andreas Wedberg, one of the nominated entrepreneurs.
Balustradedesign grew strongly in 2015, increasing turnover by over 70%. The company’s profits also remain positive. The number of employees has grown, averaging 20 over the year.
“Every time you receive recognition like this, it makes you proud as an entrepreneur. Being able to serve as a role model and perhaps inspire others is incredibly rewarding,” says André Svensson, the second nominated entrepreneur.
The winner will be announced at the annual Business Days at Lindab Arena on 13 May. The other nominees are the business owners behind ICA Arons in Hjärnarp and Knobby Shop AB. In 2012 Balustradedesign won the award “Entrepreneur of the Year in Ängelholm, the Erik Paulsson Scholarship”.
