LBW Environment Announced as a Finalist in the InBusiness Fast Movers 2010 SA Award
LBW has been recognised in the InBusiness Fast Movers Award as being one of SA’s fastest growing businesses, earning a spot in the 25 finalists for 2010. In the last three years LBW has grown to eight people and last year saw a growth in both revenue and staff of more than 100%. The award, which is open to South Australian business from all industries, celebrates significant achievement in revenue and staff growth over the last two financial periods. Winners will be announced on 26 November 2010 at a breakfast celebration at the National Wine Centre and will share in $50k worth of prizes.
The process involved a nomination stage and a lengthy interview with BDO that delved into the business philosophies and experiences behind LBW’s growth to date. Kylie and Jarrod Bishop maintain that staying true to what the company does best as well as to the reasons they decided to run their own business in the first place, ensures that the company moves in a strategic direction that responds to and can be easily adopted by the market. That of course and a passion and determination that is unrelenting!
No success is created alone nor should be enjoyed alone. The whole LBW team and some of its clients will stop to enjoy a break in routine on the 26 November and to learn how others managed their way through a pretty tough year.
Our thanks of course to our clients and staff. Your loyalty is respected and valued and we wouldn’t be LBW without you.

Combining self contained apartments and stand alone cottages, a large outdoor play area and gym, the House will provide a base for families whose children are undergoing treatment at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital.
Our involvement is heartfelt and we look forward to a continued relationship with Cox Constructions, the project managers, and the team at Ronald McDonald House.
