The Aer Lingus Viscount Awards in association with Ulster Business Magazine celebrate the very best in the private business sector in Northern Ireland.

The awards’ ceremony took place in the House of Commons in London this week, where there were seven awards up for grabs.

TG Eakin were awarded ‘Exporter of the Year’. However as if that was not enough, we were also awarded the most coveted award – ‘Overall Excellence’! The judges were impressed by the success of the company through excellent products, which make a real difference to patients’ lives.

Commenting on the award, Jeremy Eakin said: “It is a great honour to accept both the Exporter of the Year and the Overall Excellence award. To be recognised at this level is a real boost for our extremely dedicated staff. We have a very strong and successful company, which provides great products for nurses and patients. Significant investment in R&D, people and processes will ensure we achieve our ambitious goals for the future.”
