MPL Fabrications Shortlisted at the Coventry Live Business Awards
MPL Fabrications nominated for the Covid defiance award
On the 14th of October 2021, the CoventryLive Business Awards took place at the Coventry Building Society Arena . The awards celebrated and recognised the top companies and organisations across the city of Coventry.
MPL Fabrications were shortlisted in the COVID defiance category. Having never entered the awards before, MPL Fabrications have seen many changes over the years, and decided as a dedication and thank you to the team, they would enter.
In 2020 the family business had been on the verge of folding due to the unexpected passing of the company's previous Managing Director. The business was under immense pressure and then Covid hit.
Under exceptional circumstances Kevin Duffy joined the business as the new Managing Director. Despite the challenges, Kevin and the team turned the business around growing the family business by 20% year on year.
Unfortunately on the evening, MPL didn't win the category, but felt a real sense of achievement in being shortlisted as a finalist and having turned the business back into a profitable business once again.
On the evening MD Kevin Duffy and his daughters were proudly presented with their Covid finalist award.
