Eaton Smith Solicitors is delighted to announce that Aqualand Industries Ltd has been chosen by the judging panel as the latest winner of its Business of the Month Award.

Aqualand Industries is a family-owned advanced engineering company that specialises in the leisure and hospitality sector. The family noticed that when they went out for the day, activities were often focused on adults with little for younger children to enjoy. While the adults could enjoy riding in a vehicle, this did not apply to children, especially once they were above 4 years of age and grew out of feet push ride-on.

Aqualand saw an opportunity and began to manufacture products that would give children a safe but exciting adventure. All of Aqualand’s products are made for 4-16-year-olds and are made to be used in defined areas and with safety at the core. The products can now be seen across many holiday parks across the country.

Greg Allsopp, director at Aqualand Industries, commented: “It is great recognition for the team as we continue to expand internationally and add to our electric vehicle product range with a rugged Adventurer pedal car that’s designed for all the family. We’ve had a watershed year that’s seen the business secure blue chip customers, partner with some of the biggest names in the leisure industry, increase our employee base and expand our apprentice programme as we build toward £1m revenue.

“The award is a fantastic initiative from Eaton Smith that gives local companies a boost and much-needed recognition.”

James Burgess, partner at Eaton Smith and Chair of the judging panel, commented: “The judges were particularly impressed by this application, in particular the idea behind the business and how this grew from inception to a thriving enterprise in such a relatively short amount of time. A worthy winner of October’s Business of the Month award.”

James Burgess chaired the judging panel and was joined by Martin Hathaway (Mid Yorkshire Chamber) and Annie Bradley (Department of International Trade).
