Queen’s Award recognises Hydro Group international success
It has been announced that subsea cable and connector specialist Hydro Group plc, has been awarded the prestigious Queen’s Award for Enterprise: International Trade.
The Awards acknowledge exceptional businesses across the UK, celebrating the cream of the country’s entrepreneurs and innovative minds. Open to almost all UK-based businesses, the International Trade category recognises those who have demonstrated substantial international growth in overseas earnings and commercial success within their sector.
Commenting on the award, Hydro Group Managing Director Doug Whyte said: “Since inception, investing in the establishment of new territorial markets has been critical to Hydro Group’s vision. The launch of Hydro Group Asia and Hydro Group Systems has driven our international operations to the next level, resulting in on-the-ground client support, which has driven a significant increase in overseas business.
“This has allowed us to focus efforts on further international growth, and the past 24 months have seen Hydro Group successfully develop new strategic partnerships in Australia, Denmark, Turkey, Vietnam, China, the Philippines and Indonesia.
Hydro Group employs more than 100 full time staff worldwide and operates on a global platform providing total solutions to a portfolio of prime contractors, major operators, OEMs, defence agencies, defence organisations and the UK MOD.
