Lintbells Crowned Small Business Of The Year At The Hertfordshire Business Awards

The Lintbells team at the Hertfordshire Business Awards 2012 The natural pet health supplements firm Lintbells, manufacturer of YUMOVE and YUMEGA Plus, is celebrating after being named the best small business in Hertfordshire at a prestigious awards ceremony. The company, based near Baldock and established only five years ago, has grown at a phenomenal rate in that time and has reached the finals of the Hertfordshire Business Awards on both occasions that it’s entered. Lintbells co-founder and Commercial Director John Davies said: “This is an absolutely fantastic way to round off 2012 which has already been a hugely successful year for us. We have expanded our product range, including developing new markets for the rapidly growing YUMOVE triple action mobility supplement, which is now selling at a rate of a million tablets a month. “We have also increased our veterinary business team as our range of proven affordable health solutions has grown, and we have more new product launches planned in the near future. Lintbells has only a small team and everyone in the company has worked incredibly hard to achieve this accolade.” The Small Business of the Year Award was sponsored by the FSB. The judges’ considerations included growth, ambition and quality of management, but they were also looking for a clear demonstration of passion and commitment by the team. John Davies added: “To be recognised as the best performing small business in a dynamic county like Hertfordshire demonstrates the success of our range of nutritional supplements and our commitment to excellence. The judges also looked at customer service in coming to their decision and that is an area Lintbells prides itself on and is one of the most important aspects of the business.” Lintbells was one of over 50 finalists at the gala awards ceremony which was held at Knebworth House and organised by media group Archant. The presentations were made by Matt Barbet of ITV’s Daybreak.
