A BOOMING Barnsley company has entered a prestigious Sunday Times list for companies with the fastest-growing profits.
Tankersley-based Dransfield Properties, which celebrated its 20th anniversary last year, entered the Sunday Times Profit Track 100 - its first entry in the league table.
The firm's directors attended a special reception in London to mark the achievement joining companies from across the UK.
The league table ranks Britain's privately-owned companies with the fastest-growing profits over the past three years of available audited accounts.
"It was a surprise to be named in the list," said Mark Dransfield, the firm's managing director. "We're a private company that has expanded in a difficult climate.
"Over the past two years we have invested heavily in our staff and in our shopping centres which has had a positive impact on the company’s performance.
"The business has focused heavily on customer service and despite a tough trading environment, our pro-active approach to management has kept our shopping centres fully let and growing."
In South Yorkshire the company delivered the town centre regeneration scheme in Penistone and work has just started on the final phase of the scheme bringing new office and commercial units to a key gateway site in the town.
