Brexit Boost Gives Firms A Royal Seal Of Approval

Top three firms honoured for success in the global marketplace

THREE burgeoning businesses capitalising on a Brexit boost have won a royal seal of approval as the very best of British.

The trio will today receive The King's Awards for Enterprise - the highest official UK honour for firms - recognising their part as international trade, innovation, and sustainable development trailblazers.

This comes just weeks after Business and Trade Secretary Kemi Badenoch hailed Brexit freedoms for powering a manufacturing "juggernaut" that is helping to fire a resurgent economy in further proof Britain is leading the way outside the EU.

Birmingham-based metalmaker Brandauer has the rare honour of being one of only a select group to hold two different royal titles simultaneously.

It makes innovative and globally competitive precision tools that can produce micron accuracy components for use in high-specification construction applications, battery assemblies, MedTech devices and electrification.

Today's honour comes four years after the firm won an International Trade Award from the then Queen's Award for Enterprise.

Achievement

Boss Rowan Crozier said: "It's so difficult to get royal endorsement once, so to get a second award is a tremendous achievement for the business and reinforces our determination to be world class in everything we do.
