Shelforce shortlisted for Workplace Champion at GBCC Awards 2026

Shelforce has been shortlisted for Workplace Champion 2026 at the Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce( GBCC) Awards 2026.

The company is one of eight finalists in the category, which celebrates organisations that put people, inclusion and opportunity at the heart of workplace culture.

This year’ s GBCC Awards attracted a record number of entries across 11 revamped categories, with the winners set to be announced at a ceremony at the ICC Birmingham on Thursday, May 14.
The nomination is further recognition of Shelforce’ s long-standing commitment to inclusive employment and social value. Under the leadership of Business Manager
Howard Trotter, the manufacturer has continued to redefine what inclusive leadership looks like in the region.
Howard Trotter said:“ We are absolutely delighted to be shortlisted for Workplace Champion 2026. This nomination means so much to everyone at Shelforce because it recognises our people-first culture and the incredible achievements of our team”
“ In many ways, the GBCC Awards is where it all started for us. After winning Excellence for People Development and being named overall Greater Birmingham Business of the Year in 2021, our journey ultimately led to Shelforce receiving The King’ s Awards for Enterprise in Promoting Opportunity. To be recognised again by the Chamber is a huge honour.”
With turnover exceeding £ 8 million last year and a pioneering recruitment pathway developed alongside Birmingham City Council, Shelforce continues to prove that inclusive employment drives both commercial success and lasting social impact.
