The contribution that Marina Projects Ltd plays in the local business community has been recognised by Gosport Borough Council in their annual Business Awards ceremony. Building on last year’s inaugural event, companies based in the Borough were selected for one or more of seven Award categories, including Customer Service Excellence, Benefit to the Community and Innovation & Entrepreneurship. The winners from each category were also considered for the top prize of ‘Business of the Year’ – which this year went to Marina Projects Ltd.

Following the short listing process, three companies from each category were interviewed and the judges summing up of Marina Projects noted the portfolio of high profile National and International marina development and consultancy commissions. The judges recognised that the Company…

“…is a leader in their field and a perfect example of the success that can be achieved by exporting local skills and knowledge across the globe...”

This assessment resulted in the award for National/International Trade and the successful entry into the Business of the Year category.

Leader of the Council, Cllr Dave Smith, commented…

“Once again, we have been impressed by the quality of the entrants. I am delighted that we are able to publicly acknowledge the contribution these individuals and organisations make to the economic vitality of the Borough”.

Marina Projects Project Director, Mike Ward, commented…

“We are delighted to receive this Award, which recognises not only the achievements of Marina Projects Ltd but also the contribution made by all members of our Professional team. Gosport is the ideal location for our business with its strong maritime links to the world renowned Portsmouth Harbour and The Solent”.
