We’re delighted to announce that we’ve made it into the Future50 (well actually 60) for 2019, joining some of the best companies in Norfolk and East Anglia. This is a massive achievement for the team, and we would like to take the time to thank everyone who has supported us over the years, making this award possible.
What is Future50?
Future50 is a compilation of the most innovative and ambitious companies within the Norfolk/Suffolk region. It is not a recognition that is taken light-heartedly. Any business that is shortlisted really does deserve to be there and represents companies that are the leaders in their sectors. Being listed in Future50 also indicates the growth the company has experienced in recent times, and the ambition of the team driving them forward. With key sponsors including Barclays, Birketts, Lovewell Blake, New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership and the UEA, Future50 really does provide businesses with the opportunity for continued growth, supporting those who make it to the final round.
What does it mean for us?
Winning any accolade is a huge achievement. Archive-Vault launched in 2006, and with Zoe taking the company over in 2012, we have gone from strength to strength. This really is a fantastic acknowledgement to receive, showcasing our continued hard work. With the support of Future50, we hope to continue with our expansion, and now have extra support on a national scale to aid with this. Access to additional funding will enable us not only continue with the expansion of our facilities, but to also extend the services we offer. Enabling us to continue to provide the best level of service to our customers. We are dedicated to becoming the best records management and document storage company.
Local attraction
Being recognised for our work on a local level is such an achievement for the team here at Archive-Vault. The business was developed when we realised there was a gap in the local market for secure, accessible records management. From there, the business has escalated, and we now have customers nationally. Our digital retrieval service, scan on demand, has really taken off. This enables customers to retrieve files fast if they don’t require the hard copy. The scanned file is accessed on our online portal, making the process of document retrieval more economical. As you can see, we are focused on providing innovative solutions for the ever-changing market.
Boosting the local economy
The whole concept of Future50 is just an amazing boost for the local economy. It not only recognises those companies who are leading their field, but also puts money back into the local community. But it isn’t all about the money. The recent promotion of Norwich City back into the Premier League is a true representation of how you can make it to the top with hard graft – it isn’t all about ‘throwing money at it’, as ITV’s Andy Ward suggested.
Of course, the NCFC promotion has also spurred some brilliant marketing tie-ins from local businesses keen to support our local team. @NorwichCityFC recently tweeted: ‘To mark City’s promotion to the Premier League, @BullardsGin have released a limited edition bottle of Celebration Gin! #ncfc. A great boost for the local economy, that’s for sure.
A little thank you
We just wanted to take the time to thank all our customers, past and present, who have supported us throughout this journey. We are thrilled to have been featured in the Future50 list for 2019 and are very excited to see what else lies in the year ahead.
