Earlier this year, we were fortunate enough to win the Gold SME of the Year at the prestigious Global Good Awards.

Founded in 2015 by Karen Sutton, the Global Good Awards aim to spotlight businesses of all shapes and sizes around the world who are driving social and environmental change with a purpose-led approach.

Sponsored by Hubspot, the SME of the Year Award aims to recognise established, purpose-driven SME’s of less than 250 employees who are committed to the key principles of ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) impacts. The award was for the small business which has most successfully developed its sustainability and social impact initiatives between 2020 and 2022.

JPA received the award for its commitment to the circular economy and passion for sustainability. So far, we have rehomed 5,000 items of furniture, as well as diverting over 25,000 items from landfill and saving over £1.5m on behalf of our clients.
