Title: Cheshire Exporter of the Year 2017
Laser Quantum’s recognition at the High Sheriff Awards ceremony
Stockport, UK: Last week, the world-class products and highly motivated staff of Laser
Quantum were recognised by being awarded ‘Cheshire exporter of the year 2017’ at the
High Sheriff Awards ceremony. The judging committee recognised the success our
business has had with our continuous wave and ultrafast lasers across the globe and
our ever-growing export market, which is now over 95% of our business.
In addition to winning the ‘export’ award, we were also highly commended for the ‘High
Sheriff Enterprise Award’. Being nominated and winning such awards is testament to
the quality of the products we manufacture and the hard work of all our staff and only
further inspires us to continue to grow. Congratulations to all our staff!
Andy Wells, Head of Sales and Marketing at Laser Quantum said ‘Laser Quantum has
its focus on a strong and well-balanced product portfolio driven by our customers’
needs, and our ability to identify new market opportunities. This recognition of our
export achievement is extremely honouring. As we continue to grow year on year,
export has become demanding and important for our company. Building partnerships
internationally, has helped us to be recognised by the Cheshire High Sheriff. We hope
to continue this excellent work and to strengthen our trade links between Laser
Quantum and more international market places.’
