The Best Connection rockets in Sunday Times Grant Thorton Top Track 250

Date: 5th Monday, January, 2015

Flexible workforce solutions business, The Best Connection, is ranked 105th in the Sunday Times listing of the UK’s 250 Top Track companies 2014 which is a jump of 143 places on lasts year’s position. 

The ranking is based on Britain’s leading mid-market private businesses based on sales figures and reflects the growth and success of The Best Connection which has been achieved through organic growth and acquisition. The Best Connection shares the prestigious list with many familiar business names across the retail, services and utilities markets. 

Commenting on the successful climb in the chart, Neil Yorke, Director, said: “We are in some ways a litmus test for the economy.  As customer demand increases, the need for good quality labour in the driving, industrial, retail and warehousing & distribution markets escalates accordingly.  Our services underpin the growth challenges of our customers and the signs are good.  We have increased our turnover and profitability over the past year and this is also attributed to taking a larger share of business from the market as well as through organic growth.”

A typical Top Track 250 company has sales ranging between £150m and £600m, is owned and run by established families and entrepreneurs, with around 30% by private equity firms and has between 100 and 5,000 staff.  The accolade is an endorsement of The Best Connection’s growth, success and market strength and reflects the company’s successful business development strategy.

The Best Connection has been privately operated by its founding directors since 1991.  It has the largest industrial and driving employment business in the Midlands and the second largest in the UK.  The group achieved a turnover of £272M for 2014 and supplies temporary workers to over 11,000 clients annually.
