Williams Performance Tenders, the world’s top jet yacht tender specialist, is pleased to have been chosen to participate at an industry exhibition at the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) in London from Monday 16th – Friday 27th April.
Award-winning Williams has been invited to showcase its range and promote its success and capabilities as part of an exhibit to highlight sector growth. The company has been selected alongside leading brands from all aspects of the marine industry – commercial, leisure, naval, marine sciences and renewables. The exhibition will be officially launched by Mark Prisk and enjoyed by ministers, senior civil servants and the general public throughout the two weeks.
Williams Performance Tenders is owned by brothers, Mathew and John Hornsby and Roy Parker. It has experienced astounding success since the entrepreneurs founded the company in 2004 and today, just eight years later, Williams is recognised as the world’s leading jet tender specialist, with its high-quality performance tenders being demanded by discerning boat owners throughout the world. The company was honoured with the prestigious Queen’s Award for Enterprise in the 2010 International Trade category in recognition of its growing export sales and increased overseas distribution.
Commenting on why Williams was selected to take part, Brian Clark, Environmental and External Relations Manager at the British Marine Federation, said: “It was an easy decision to select William Performance Tenders as one of the leisure marine industry representatives for the BIS showcase. From humble beginnings, they have grown into one of the world leaders. They epitomise everything good about our industry and are truly a British manufacturing success story.”
Mathew Hornsby, co-managing director at Williams, commented: ”We are incredibly proud to have been asked to take part in this exhibition and are really looking forward to seeing one of our tenders as part of the showcase. The marine industry is a vital contributor to the UK economy and exhibitions such as this do a lot to build the industry’s strength and capabilities – showcasing all that’s great about British manufacturing and the marine leisure industry.”
The exhibition will take place from Monday 16th – Friday 27th April at 1 Victoria Street, London.
