Prima Dental is delighted to have won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise for International Trade in recognition of its substantial growth in overseas trade. A global leader in the design and manufacture of dental drills and precision dental instruments, Gloucester-based Prima Dental engineers over 20 million dental drills a year and exports to over 85 countries.
Bucking the UK downturn in export growth, Prima Dental has achieved continuous growth in overseas earnings of 129% over the last six years. Prima Dental’s export success is down to innovative global marketing, engineering world-class products and developing tailored product ranges to match customers’ specific requirements in each market and region.
Richard Muller, managing director at the 138-strong Gloucester manufacturer, comments: “We are honoured to win a Queen’s Award for International Trade. It is the UK’s most sought-after endorsement of business success so this is a hugely significant and proud moment for Prima Dental. It is testament to our skilled and loyal workforce who have all played a part in our success.”
“We are looking forward to welcoming Lord-Lieutenant of the County, Dame Janet Trotter to our base at Waterwells Business Park and attending a celebratory reception at Buckingham Palace in the summer. It is a fitting coincidence that winning a Queen’s Award falls on our 40th anniversary in Gloucestershire – giving us twice the reason to celebrate.”
