It was a great honour to be presented with our Queen's Award by HRH The Duke of Gloucester, who visited our facility yesterday, accompanied by Sir Roderick Cordy-Simpson, Vice Lord Lieutenant of Wiltshire. It was an enjoyable afternoon for all of the Glentham staff and a good opportunity to celebrate the company's success with family and the press also in attendance.

Glentham Life Sciences was the only company in Wiltshire to win a Queen's Award in 2017. The company won the award in the International Trade category earlier this year for outstanding growth in export sales, which form around 95% of our sales turnover.

Nick and Sam attended a reception hosted by Her Majesty The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh at Buckingham Palace in July, which was an opportunity to meet members of the Royal Family and celebrate with fellow award winners.

We would like to thank our staff for their ongoing hard work and commitment, without which we would not have been able to win this prestigious award.

As we enter our fifth year trading we are optimistic, with sales continuing to grow strongly and exciting new developments coming soon!
