Automotive firm’s delight as it scoops two awards

BURTON-BASED global automotive parts manufacturer Ginho Group has won two prestigious awards – the Employer of the Year award at the East Staffordshire & South Derbyshire Business Awards 2021 and the International Trade Award at the Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce Business Awards 2021.

Ginho Group is a manufacturer of high-quality precision castings, components and assemblies for the automotive market and other sectors.

The company exports around five million parts annually to customers across Europe from its premises located in Burton.

Commenting on the double award win, managing of director of Ginho Group Europe, Shaun Gray said: “It’s fantastic to win both of these awards in one week. We have an amazing team at Ginho and I’m incredibly proud of how they have navigated the last 18 months to ensure supply to our customers across Europe.

“Winning the employer award recognises how the team have supported each other and at the same time maintained a working environment that is a fun and exciting place to be, even in these uncertain times. The International Trade award is great recognition for the team who have worked tirelessly through Brexit and Covid-19 to maintain to supply to our customers.

“I would add that both of these awards reflect the close partnerships we have with our customers, suppliers and local communities - we view them all as part of the extended Ginho team and they all continue to play an important role in our success.”

Infinity IT Solutions sponsored the Employer of the Year and judges MD Simon Mcalpine and marketing manager Leanne Kavvadian, who visited the Ginho site and met the team as part of the judging process, said: “Ginho is an outstanding employer in the local area and a business to aspire to. Committed to their people they encourage personal development, offer an extensive list of benefits and truly care. So much so, they are more like family than an ‘employer’... we wouldn’t mind a job at Ginho ourselves! Not only are their culture and team impressive, but the overall business performance and growth too. This award was richly deserved, keep up the great work.”
