Cibes Lift has been awarded, on the 28th August 2008, the prestigious prize Export Hermes 2008. The prize was handed over by Her Royal Highness the Swedish Crown Princess Victoria in conjunction with the World Trade Day at the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce.
The Jury’s motivation was: Cibes Lift has, thanks to strong marketing management, technical flexibility and adaptation to the EC regulations become the European leading manufacturer of screw driven platform lifts. Cibes Lift has its headquarters in Jarbo outside Sandviken and has a subsidiary in the UK.
The World Trade Day is a joint arrangement between the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce and the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). Ewa Björling, Minister of Commerce, was one of the speakers this year.
The Export Development Foundation has awarded Swedish companies with Export Hermes since 1981. It is given to companies who have shown extraordinary export successes (fast and stable export growth, innovative marketing, broad market penetration and sound finances). In total, 40 companies have received the Export Hermes prize.
