Lansdale, PA – Greene Tweed, a global leader in advanced materials and high-performance solutions, has been honored as the Nottinghamshire ‘Excellence in International Trade’ recipient of the 2024 East Midlands Chamber Business Awards, which celebrate the achievement and resilience of companies throughout the region.

The East Midlands Chamber plays a vital role in connecting, supporting, and championing businesses and communities across Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire in the United Kingdom. The Nottinghamshire Business Awards recently celebrated outstanding achievements in the local business community, where winners across 13 categories were announced.

The ‘Excellence in International Trade’ award specifically recognizes local businesses that excel in overseas trade.
