Company Shop is calling on the Middleton community to get behind them as they compete in the final stages of the European Business Awards, where it is up for the Environmental & Corporate Sustainability prize.
The local food-redistribution pioneer, which stops good food going to waste, has already been chosen as a National Champion after the first phase of judging by an independent panel.
Now voting is open to the public to help decide the overall European Champions. Last year nearly a quarter of a million people voted on the entries, and Company Shop is calling on local residents to get behind them and "fly the flag for Middleton in Europe".
John Marren, Company Shop founder and chairman, said: “We are thrilled to have been selected to represent the UK and we would hugely appreciate the public’s support to help us fly the Middleton flag in Europe.”
