Having recently announced a further expansion of its manufacturing and distribution facilities at its Coalville, County Leicestershire, England headquarters, it says the award has “quantified this expansion and underlined the success of its export sales strategy.”
CMS Cepcor has exported to over 450 customers in 88 countries over the three-year period covered by the application, and it says that despite the worldwide economic recession and credit crisis, export turnover increased by 16% in 2010 and then a further increase of 58% in 2011.

The company says its growth has been achieved through a focus on optimisation of web presence together with an engineering focus on producing quality products plus an expansion of the range of services offered to its increasing customer base.
