Danbro Wins Dealmakers Award

Specialist accountants for contractors, Danbro, added another award to its collection last night (Thursday, 4 March) when it scooped Small Deal of the Year at the Insider Dealmakers Awards 2010 for its successful takeover of Safe Business Solutions last year.

Danbro’s acquisition of the London-based firm in April 2009 increased its client base to more than 2,700 active contractors, operating under both its Limited Company and Umbrella services.

The awards ceremony – organised by North-West Business Insider magazine – took place at Blackburn Rovers’ Ewood Park ground, and was attended by hundreds of representatives of the region’s business community.

The magazine took nominations from advisers and businesses across the Lancashire area, and were looking for ‘eye-catching’ deals which demonstrated bravery and ambition in a tough economic climate.

Damian Broughton, partner at Danbro, said: “This is great news, and once again I can only thank all of our team for their efforts over the past year as Danbro has continued to go from strength to strength.

“This acquisition marked another important step in our growth strategy and the successful integration of SBS’s clients into our company since then played a big part in our success over the past year.”

Danbro has also been named as a member of the Sunday Times Virgin Fast Track 100 list of the company’s fastest-growing companies for the third year running, appearing at number 40 on the 2009 list, with 92 per cent annual growth. It took on 11 new staff and opened a new office in Manchester, to complement its existing locations in Blackpool and London.

The firm also received the ISO:9001 accreditation for its management systems and an Investors in People award in recognition of the training and development of its staff, and was shortlisted in three separate categories for the  Accountancy Age Awards for excellence in 2009.
