Two Cornish companies are to appear in the inaugural Sunday Times HSBC International Track 200 league table, ranking Britain’s private companies with the fastest-growing international sales.
Launceston-based lamb producer Jasper’s features in 81st place, having more than doubled its export sales over the past two years, with overseas business reported to be worth £5.2 million in the year ended March 2011.
Pendennis Shipyard, which recently opened a refitting workshop in Majorca, is ranked as the 114th fastest growing, with 37% international sales growth over the past two years.
According to the report, export makes up the lion share of Pendennis’ business – £24.7 million out of total sales of £26.2 million.
The full findings will be published in a special ten-page supplement in this weekend’s Sunday Times, out on July 8.
