Recognised Again Locally
»»The VEKA UK Group has been
recognised as ‘Business of the Year’ at the
prestigious Burnley Business Awards.
The awards ceremony was organised by
Burnley Council and was held in the stunning
surroundings of Towneley Hall and grounds.
The VEKA UK Group’s MD, Dave
Jones, was on hand to collect the award and
celebrated with a number of delegates from
the industry-leading firm. “We’re absolutely
thrilled to have been awarded this accolade for
the second time running.
“VEKA has been a huge part of Burnley’s
manufacturing heritage for almost 30 years
and since the very beginning, our ethos has
been to constantly strive to see the business
develop and evolve even further. Our
acquisition of the £58m Bowater Building
Products brought more than 100 additional
jobs to Burnley.

“We couldn’t achieve the
amount we do, without the
hard work and dedication of our
staff and we are proud to have
held ‘Investors in People’ status
for more than 20 years.” Dave
concludes.
