CHARTERED accountants, tax and business advisers MHA Carpenter Box has been named as one of three finalists in the Business of the Year category of the Gatwick Diamond Business Awards 2017.

MHA Carpenter Box practice director Chris Coopey said he was delighted at the news.

He said: “Being shortlisted for this prestigious award is very much a recognition of the way in which the team at MHA Carpenter Box is willing to go that extra mile – be that for our clients, for business in general and also in terms of the charitable work we do for the communities in which our offices are based.”

The Business of the Year category recognises companies which can demonstrate an exceptional track-record of achievement, particularly high performing organisations that do the right thing for their clients, staff and the Gatwick Diamond Community.

The Gatwick Diamond is a key economic area, not just for the South East but for the whole of the UK, and the business awards celebrate those who have shown innovation and inspiration in their work as well as real commitment to the region.

The awards have become one of the region’s premier business occasions recognising the best of the best.

The finals are on March 16 at a ceremony at the Effingham Park Hotel, Gatwick.
