Festival atmosphere
The awards ceremony took place at the first ever ‘Arc in the Park’, a company-wide festival, where the operator closed all of its sites for one day so that more than 1,000 team members could enjoy a festival experience with drinks, food and music provided courtesy of suppliers and partners.
"Our success is truly down to the incredible hard work and dedication of our people, and we’re always looking for ways to show our gratitude and reward our teams for continuously going above and beyond," says CEO Martin Wolstencroft. "Arc in the Park was the mother of all summer parties and we can’t wait to make it even bigger and better next year.
"Our Nobody Does it Better Awards showcase the incredible talent we have and I’m very proud of each and every one of our winners for leading the way and making a positive impact on our business, and holding the awards at such an amazing and unique festival for the entire business was the perfect way to celebrate absolutely everybody who works with us."
Arc Inspirations operates 19 premium bars across the Midlands and the north of England, under the brands of Banyan Bar & Kitchen, BOX and Manahatta. The business aims to open 50 sites by 2030.
