Niftylift, a prominent British manufacturer, is being celebrated with the esteemed King’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade for 2024. This marks the company’s inaugural King’s Award for Enterprise, adding to its notable record of achievements, which includes four Queen’s Awards for Enterprise—two in 2013 and another two in 2019. Niftylift stands out as the sole company to have received two Queen’s Awards on two separate occasions, showcasing its relentless pursuit of excellence and innovation.
“We are incredibly honored to receive this prestigious award,” stated John Keely, Managing Director of Niftylift. “This accolade is a testament to our relentless hard work and dedication to excellence in the realm of international trade. It highlights our unwavering commitment to advancing technology while ensuring that our operations promote sustainable practices globally.”
The King’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade recognizes British companies that excel in international growth and commercial success. To earn this award, businesses must demonstrate significant growth in overseas earnings and commercial success through innovative products and services.
Niftylift has expanded its global presence remarkably, with export volumes increasing consistently each year. The company’s innovative design and manufacturing approaches have enabled it to produce high-quality, environmentally friendly products that meet stringent international standards.
Niftylift’s success in exports has also significantly benefited local economies, particularly in the UK, as well as in Australia, the United States, and Europe. These regions have seen substantial investments and job creation thanks to Niftylift’s growth. “Our achievements are measured not just by sales but also by the positive impact we have on communities and the environment,” added Mr. Keely. “While we aim for international success, we remain a family business at heart, driven by the well-being of our staff, their families, and our local communities.”
The King’s Award for Enterprise will be formally presented at a royal reception later this year, attended by members of the Royal Family and other dignitaries.
John King, Managing Director of Niftylift Australia, remarked: “This prestigious award further recognizes Niftylift’s innovative spirit. Our history of breaking the mold in manufacturing, supported by ongoing R&D in Milton Keynes, enables us to continue growing in global markets.”
Niftylift remains committed to excellence and innovation, setting the stage for future growth and sustained international success.
