A GARAGE door specialist in Bolton is celebrating after winning a major logistics award, recognising the company's outstanding van delivery service.

Chamberlain Doors has been awarded SME Van Operator of the Year award in the Logistics UK Van Awards 2021, which took place at the Hyatt Regency, Birmingham on September 24.

The company has also been shortlisted for the coveted Van Operator of the Year category at the Logistics UK Awards 2021.

This will take place on December 9 at the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge in London.

Kelly Mitchell of Chamberlain Doors said: “We are delighted to have been awarded the Van Excellence Accreditation every year for the last three years.

“But to have been shortlisted for and then won, the SME Van Operator of the Year Award has been fantastic!

“We are excited to see what the December awards bring but whatever happens, this award is testament to the amazing team that we have at Chamberlain Doors and how hard they have worked over the past three years and in particular over the last 18 months.

“We are incredibly proud of our achievements.”

This is the latest success for the Bolton-based firm, which is the UK’s largest independent garage door specialist and has installed more than 700,000 garage doors across the country to date.

The company has been in business for nearly 50 years and in that time Gary Brooks of Chamberlain Doors said the company “have built a reputation for quality, reliability and integrity through first-class products and customer service.”

The Logistics UK 2021 awards awarded eight businesses in a range of categories and Chamberlain Doors were shortlisted for two, the SME Van Operator of the Year award which they won as well as the Van Safety and Compliance Award.
