At the Salford Business Awards 2025, we were proud to be shortlisted in two categories and recognised as runner-up in the Community Award. This recognition reflects the work we’ve been doing to make a lasting, positive impact in Salford, where our business was founded in 1985—employing local residents, supporting schools, and giving back through initiatives like prison leaver programmes, road safety workshops, and local clean-up projects.
One judge from Argyle North West Construction commented:
“ The judges were impressed by Kenny Waste Management as they have been part of the Salford community since 1985 – employing local residents, supporting schools, and actively giving back through initiatives such as apprenticeship programmes, road safety workshops, and local clean up initiatives.
With nearly half of their workers from Salford they’re more than a business – they’re part of the fabric of the community they serve. The judges praised their longstanding commitment to local people and their ongoing investment in education, opportunity and positive change.”
For us, this award is a reminder that what we do every day—delivering social value, championing environmental responsibility, and supporting local people—truly makes a difference. It’s not about the recognition; it’s about the impact on the community we’re proud to call home.
Local business awards aren’t just about winners and trophies—they highlight the positive impact businesses have on the communities they serve. That’s why Kenny Waste Management was proud to sponsor this year’s Salford Business Awards: strong local businesses create opportunities, foster collaboration, and help make Salford a better place to live and work.
We’d like to thank Salford Council, the University of Salford, and the Salford Business Awards team for a well-run event that celebrates the city’s business community. At Kenny Waste Management, we’ll continue to invest in Salford—supporting initiatives that strengthen local business, create opportunity, and deliver positive change for the people and places we serve.
