John Sisk & Son a leading provider of construction services with extensive operations across Ireland, the United Kingdom and mainland Europe, has announced the winners of its Supply Chain Awards for 2019 at the annual awards event in Dublin last night.

The awards are now in their third year and have become a fixture in the calendar where Sisk recognises excellence among its supply chain partners across the business in Ireland, the UK and Europe and shows appreciation for all the great work done together.

As Sisk celebrates its 160^th year in business this year, the company now spends over €1bn annually across its supply chain, €1.03bn in 2019 alone. The construction business also confirmed it has a total of 5,000 approved and active suppliers and subcontractors on its system.

Commenting after the ceremony, Stephen Bowcott, CEO, John Sisk & Son, said: “In this our 160^th year in operation as a family owned construction business the Sisk Supply Chain Awards is a great opportunity to recognise our supply chain partners for their great work with us.”

“We wouldn’t be where we are without industry leading supply chain partners who help us deliver safe, quality projects year after year – delivering excellence for 160 years in fact.

“We are delighted to welcome everyone to Dublin and to build on the strong relationships we have and to recognise and acknowledge the excellent performance, commitment and dedication shown across Sisk projects. On behalf of Sisk, I would like to congratulate all the winners and thank them for their support this year.”

The awards ceremony on Thursday 17^th October in Dublin was attended by approx. 600 people and raised money for Focus Ireland and Shelter UK with donations from guests and the company. Irish comedian Colm O’Regan, was Master of Ceremonies.
