Commenting, Andrew said:
“It’s the first time for a generation that any government has worked so closely with business to help them invest to bring jobs and growth. I didn’t want our local businesses to miss out on what’s on offer, and I was delighted to host local firms at this prestigious event.”
Attending the event was Malcolm Cooke, Managing Director of C&C Insurance based in Romiley; Trevor Goddard, Head of Sales at Optimum Procurement Group & Adrian Shields, Head of Sales at Optimum E-Switch.
Marketing Stockport member Malcolm Cooke, Managing Director of C&C Insurance (pictured left) said:
“It was a pleasure to join Andrew and colleagues at the House of Commons. I really feel that the Government has made great progress in spearheading the economic recovery. I think this is largely down to the Government understanding that successful UK businesses lead to a stronger UK economy. Hearing more about the Government’s Industrial Strategy has reassured me that this is still the Government’s intention and I look forward to the benefits it will bring to my business.”
Commenting, Trevor Goddard, Head of Sales at Optimum Procurement Group said:
“I found the visit extremely worthwhile. It was great to hear about the Government’s ongoing commitment to backing UK businesses like Optimum Procurement Group. Knowing that we have this support gives us added confidence in positively driving our business forward and I thank Andrew for inviting us down.”
