CDE Cements Position As One Of Ireland's Best Managed Companies

CDE Global has cemented its position as one of the best managed companies in Ireland after being recognised at a national awards ceremony.

The Cookstown-based firm was celebrated in the Deloitte Best Managed Companies Awards programme at a Dublin gala awards dinner on 01 March.

The company was named amongst 135 other companies with the status of 'Best Managed'.

It is the 11th consecutive year CDE has received the award.

CDE is an industry-leading solutions provider of wet processing equipment for the construction, mining, industrial sands and construction and demolition waste industries.

Brendan McGurgan, Managing Director of CDE, said: "This is fantastic recognition for the entire team at CDE, demonstrating the high standards of management within the business as we continue to grow across the five sectors and eight regions in which we operate, delivering a consistent, world-class service to our customers."


Anya Cummins, Partner, Deloitte, commented: "Well done to all of the winning companies on their achievement. The Best Managed Companies process is a rigorous one, examining every facet of an organisation, and the bar is set high by our judging panel. As ever, the spread of companies, right around the country and across a number of industries, underlines the importance of Irish and Northern Irish companies to the economy and in the midst of economic uncertainty, technology disruption, an open competitive market and full employment, the continued strong performance of these businesses is admirable. In the current environment, it is important for this contribution to be recognised, supported and showcased."

Tom Hayes, Chief Executive of sponsor Bank of Ireland Corporate Banking, added: "It's a challenging time for businesses in general, with the operating environment consistently and rapidly changing, due to technological developments, new ways of doing things, and challenges on the macroeconomic horizon. The Best Managed Companies this year have demonstrated that they can optimise each area of their business while always operating with an acute awareness of their environment, recognising the opportunities of expansion into global markets, in addition to strategic alliances and partnerships. I look forward to their continued growth."
