Alastair Stewart, CEO and founder of etc.venues:

“I’m delighted that we have once again been included in the ‘1000 Companies to Inspire Britain’ which is widely recognised as a well researched list of companies on the move. Our continued growth is I believe down to our ability to open new venues that clients enjoy using and to the etc.team who deliver such great service”

Bruce Bratley, CEO and founder of First Mile commented:

“For the second year running, we are very proud that First Mile has been identified in the ‘1000 Companies to Inspire Britain’ report. To be included in the list, companies had to show consistent revenue growth over a minimum of three years, significantly outperforming their industry peers and we are delighted to have made the cut. We look forward to another exciting year in First Mile’s history, continuing to make it easier than ever for businesses to recycle”
