Caltech Lifts has been named Best Dundee-based Family Business of the Year in The Courier Business Awards 2023 days after it celebrated its 45th birthday. The family firm, founded in Dundee, Scotland, U.K., in 1978 by engineer Howard Renwick and now run by his sons Andrew and Fraser, was named the best family Dundee-based business at the awards ceremony at the Apex Hotel in Dundee on October 28. Managing Director Andrew Renwick accepted the award from host Gaby Roslin along with his dad Howard and brother Fraser. The judging panel, which this year was chaired by entrepreneur Mike Soutar, chose Caltech Lifts as the winner because it has kept its growth plan to increase turnover, profit and staff to record levels on-track despite the challenge of COVID-19 restrictions by maintaining focus on delivering high-quality service, products and value. In its awards application, Caltech Lifts also cited its focus on excellence in customer service as a competitive advantage, along with investing in getting, training and retaining the right staff. Established in 1978, Caltech Lifts Ltd. is one of Scotland’s leading suppliers and maintainers of lifting equipment, including passenger lifts, goods lifts, disabled access lifts and stairlifts to the public and private sectors, and maintains more than 1,500 lifts across Scotland.
