Private label pet food manufacturer GA Pet Food Partners has won two prestigious Lancashire business awards.
The company, based in Chorley, picked up both the Family Business Award and Export Award at the 2023 edition of the Red Rose Awards, which took place at the Blackpool Winter Gardens earlier this month, with over 1,000 business professionals in attendance.
Both awards had six shortlisted finalists competing for the accolade. Judges hailed GA as “a fantastic family business, run with military precision” and demonstrating “enormously impressive export credentials with a considered, well-resourced and strategic approach”.
GA has enjoyed significant recent growth in both sales, up by 20%, and profit. The firm has nine wholly-owned European subsidiaries.
Chairman Roger Bracewell said: “The whole of the GA Family are delighted and honoured to receive both awards. The awards recognises the hard work and dedication of all at GA from a small family farm 30 years ago to a £140 million turnover company, 44% of which is exported.”
