Tims Dairy wins UK accolade
Tims Dairy has been voted Family Business of the Year 2017 in this year’s awards for the London and South-East region. Brothers Chris, Peter, Bides and Tony Timotheou were presented with the award by Family Business United.
Chris Timotheou, managing director, says, “The vision of our uncle and father in establishing the business and their hard work have been our inspiration and we know they would be very proud of what the family has achieved – and of this award. However, none of this would have been possible without the dedicated team around us. The family would like to dedicate this particular award to our mother, Eleni Timotheou, who continues to be our inspiration on a daily basis.”
The family-owned yogurt brand, based in Buckinghamshire, UK, makes a range of yogurts that include bio-live Greek Style, new Greek Style Thick Set and Cypriot Set yogurt.
Since being founded in 2011 Family Business United has grown into an award-winning magazine, resource centre and events organisation championing the contribution that family businesses make to the global economy.
Paul Andrews, founder and managing director of Family Business United, comments, “Tims Dairy is a great business by four brothers and they have a fantastic product which has clear links to their family heritage. The judges were impressed with the way that the business has adapted over time, embraced the family values within their organisation and continued to make their presence felt in a competitive sector.”
