THE Sussex Super Growth Awards 2017 take place on Tuesday morning next week at the Amex Stadium.

Organisers have compiled a list of the top 53 companies based on their growth rates.

The breakfast awards are being hosted by businessman and broadcaster Simon Fanshawe OBE.

Sponsored by asb law, Lloyds Bank and Kreston Reeves, in collaboration with The Argus, Sussex Super Growth produces a unique index of the fastest growing businesses across the region.

The turnover of all Sussex-based businesses is assessed over a three-year accounting period using filed information at Companies House to identify the fastest growing companies.

Russell Bell, senior consultant, at asb law, said: “Sussex has major business strengths in construction, manufacturing, information and communications technology, aviation and professional services.

“Sussex Super Growth provides a welcome opportunity to celebrate the success of companies that are creating wealth and generating jobs across the region.”

Graham Hollis, relationship director for Lloyds Commercial Banking, said: “With the Super Growth Awards now an established fixture on the Sussex business calendar, we look forward to joining in another successful campaign in 2017 and to recognising and celebrating the achievements of our most successful fast-growth companies.”

Paul Roe, partner at Kreston Reeves, said: “It’s always great to see Sussex businesses doing well and these awards are unique in their ability to pick up fantastic success stories.

“We continue to work with high growth businesses in Sussex and know the challenges that they have to navigate in order to generate and sustain growth. We are delighted to be supporting great businesses in getting the recognition they so deserve, and making Sussex such a great place to do business.”

The fastest-growing company in last year’s Sussex Super Growth Awards was worthing-based Comms Factory Group Ltd with 311 per cent growth.
