Hill Cross Furniture shortlisted for the National Family Business of the Year Awards

We are proud to share that Hill Cross Furniture has been shortlisted for the 2024 National Family Business of the Year awards.

The prestigious awards culminate in an awards evening at The Royal College of Physicians in London in June where winners will be crowned from all across the UK, with the ultimate award going to the Supreme Champion Family Business Of The Year. Awards are given in regional, national and sector categories.  

Jen Barker, Co-Owner and CEO of Hill Cross Furniture said:

“We’re delighted to be shortlisted for these awards against some highly regarded and well known family firms. Sustainability, innovation, giving back to the community and creating a great place to work are at the heart of our business. I’m thrilled that these initiatives are being recognised”. 

Paul Andrews, Founder and CEO of Family Business United who organise the National Family Business of the Year Awards said: 

“Family firms are the backbone of the UK economy and contribute significantly in so many ways.  Family firms deserve all the recognition they can  get for all the good that they do in terms of employment, income generation and wealth creation, not forgetting their continued charitable endeavours and investment in the communities in which they operate.  These awards are now in their twelfth year and each year they have raised the profile of the sector, crowned some incredible winners and discovered some true family business gems along the way.  Winners over the years have come from all corners of the UK, been large and small, multi-generational and starting out on their journey but above all they share their underlying values, purpose and desire to succeed as a family firm.  All of those shortlisted deserve their moment in the spotlight and we look forward to crowning the winners in the summer.”
