Cavanaghs of Charleville, Main Ford and Hyundai Dealers, was singled out from among the winners to receive a special accolade for ‘rising to the challenge’, at this year’s Deloitte Best Managed Companies Awards Programme.

Deloitte, the leading business advisory firm, in association with Irish Life Corporate Business, announced last month twenty companies, which demonstrated superior business performance, and were recognised at an awards gala dinner in the Burlington Hotel in Dublin, where they were joined by Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Richard Bruton TD as special guest speaker.

Brendan Jennings, Managing Partner, Deloitte and judging panel member commented: “Huge congratulations must go to all the winners of this year’s programme. The judging panel were extremely impressed with the innovative strategies that are being adopted by Irish management teams.

“What’s more, it is really encouraging that after four years of the programme, we are now seeing a strong network of Best Managed Companies emerge. The contacts and relationships that are formed as a result of the networking opportunities that the programme facilitates, have proved extremely valuable, and is a real added benefit of taking part in the programme.”
