Roberts Travel Group of Coalville is celebrating winning its first regional awards.
The operator was recognised in two categories at the SME Leicestershire and Rutland Business Awards, held in Rutland Hall, Rutland, last month.
Roberts Travel Group was “gold winner” in the “Business of the year – more than 50 employees” award.
In addition, the organiser of private hire, holidays, excursions and local bus services picked up silver in the “High growth business of the year” category behind RĂśUT Builders.
“All of the team that attended this night had such a lovely time celebrating some amazing businesses, and to win not one but two awards against such strong competition is a compliment to everyone involved in our business,” says a statement from Roberts Travel Group .
The team is now hoping to win more recognition at the SME National Business Awards at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre in London in November.
The business continues: “Our drivers, our sales team, and all of our behind-the-scenes staff are what make Roberts so successful.
“Having such a hardworking team is what makes our business so strong, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
“We also want to thank all of our customers. To our long-term, loyal supporters, we truly appreciate every time we see you, thank you for standing by us. To our new customers who joined us over the past year, thank you for giving us the opportunity to show you what we do and how well we do it.”
The awards continues a busy period of progress for the operator, which has been undertaking work on an upgraded passenger lounge since February.
