Ross Edwards, managing director of Travelworld

The last 18 months have seen huge changes and challenges for many businesses – but, for some, it also produced opportunities.

While the international travel sector has been badly hit, the motorhome and caravan industry has grasped the nettle as Britons embrace the era of the staycation like never before.

Stafford-based specialist luxury motorhome dealer has enjoyed one of its best ever years, with nearly 100 motorhomes sold during August alone.

That was more than twice as many as the company’s most successful previous August, while it was 30 per cent higher than the most motorhomes sold in any month on record.

and its management team have shown impressive entrepreneurial spirit to deal with the challenges of not only the pandemic but also Brexit to post such impressive results.

For this reason, it’s a natural sponsor of the in the Entrepreneur of the Year category.

Launched this month for its 2022 ceremony on April 28, the event is making sure that all companies get the chance to showcase their success. The region's entrepreneurs, teams and businesses deserve to be recognised for their ingenuity, commitment and especially their resilience throughout the past year.

Businesses are being invited to submit their entries before the deadline on Monday, January 10 across 13 categories which span training, growth, international trade, innovation and more. #SBLA

Travelworld scooped the Training Excellence accolade at the Stoke-on-TrentLive Business Awards 2021.

Ross Edwards, managing director of Travelworld, said: “The Covid-19 pandemic was something that no-one could’ve predicted and something no-one was prepared for.

“It caused huge disruption to business for a multitude of reasons, from premises being forced to close, to global factories ceasing work, to huge supply chain issues and changing buying habits.

“Though our industry has certainly not been without its challenges, we have seen a quite staggering increase in the demand for motorhomes. I’ve been involved in motorhoming for over two decades and I’ve never seen demand on this level."
