For the second year running, John Packer has been shortlisted in the Taunton Deane Business Awards.
Last year the company won Best Growth Business for increased global exports, but this year the category is much closer to home – the Creative Industries Award is for businesses that feature, promote or use creative arts in their business model.
Rob Hanson – company director – said: “We were thrilled to win last year’s prize. Much has happened since; we received our Queen’s Award and expanded to a 10,000 square foot unit at Chelston Business Park making us the single largest brass and woodwind retailer in the UK.
“While the business continues to build in exports, engaging with musicians is paramount to our success and our suppliers of JP Musical Instruments. In a time where content is everything we need to passionate about music to be credible. Creating meaningful and relative content that showcases our wares locally or digitally is vital to our success. We look to have a relationship with all our customers wherever they are in the world.”
The winner will be announced later in the Summer.
