Now that June has come to an end, let's look back on an exciting month filled with news and milestones at Fitfactory. From participating in significant industry events to releasing new content and celebrating important causes.
Attending the Smart Factory Expo
We were excited to exhibit at the Smart Factory Expo hosted at the NEC in Birmingham on June 5-6. Positioned at Stand L100 in Hall 4, our team had a great time showcasing our advanced MRP production systems and the multi-award-winning MES solution. It was a fantastic opportunity to engage with industry experts, exchange insights, and discuss the future of manufacturing technologies. We're excited about the connections made and the potential collaborations coming up.
Success at the 2024 Tees Tech Awards
We are thrilled to announce that Fitfactory had an outstanding presence at the 2024 Tees Tech Awards as headline sponsor alongside our parent company Everfield. We were shortlisted for several prestigious categories, including Innovation, Unsung Hero (for our CTO Robert Johnson), and Business Leader of the Year. We are proud to share that our CEO, Jason Pritchard, won the Business Leader of the Year award! This accolade is a testament to Jason's exceptional leadership and the collective efforts of our team in driving innovation and excellence in the manufacturing technology sector.
Celebrating Pride Month
June is also Pride Month, a time to celebrate and support the LGBTQ+ community. At Fitfactory, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive workplace where everyone can thrive. We recognise the valuable contributions of our LGBTQ+ colleagues and partners in the engineering and manufacturing sectors. Diversity and inclusion are integral to our company values, and we proudly stand with the LGBTQ+ community this month and every month.
Celebrating Women in Engineering Day
In June, we proudly celebrated Women in Engineering Day, highlighting our collaborations with numerous UK SMEs led by remarkable women. It's inspiring to see the innovative contributions women are making in the engineering and manufacturing sectors. At Fitfactory, we are committed to supporting and championing diversity and excellence within the industry.
Father's Day
This Father's Day we celebrated all the brilliant minds shaping the engineering and manufacturing industry! At Fitfactory, many of our SME partners have strong family legacies, and this month we celebrated the fathers who have passed down their expertise and entrepreneurial spirit to their sons and daughters, building extraordinary family businesses together. We take great pride in collaborating with these remarkable family enterprises, working hand in hand to engineer groundbreaking solutions.
World Environment Day: Commitment to Sustainability
On World Environment Day, we reaffirmed our commitment to helping SMEs in the engineering and manufacturing sectors achieve net-zero emissions. Our products, including Tricorn and MES, are designed to streamline operations and reduce inefficiencies, contributing to more sustainable manufacturing practices. Environmental responsibility is at the core of our mission, and we are dedicated to driving positive change in the industry.
FitFest Festival: Celebrating Our Team
On the 27th of June, we hosted our summer event, 'FitFest Festival,' which included awards, team games, and a get-together for all our staff from around the country. It was a fantastic day of celebration, recognising the hard work and dedication of our team while fostering teamwork. The event was a testament to the strong sense of community and collaboration within Fitfactory. They’ll be more to come from this so keep your eyes open!
