Countryside welcomed over 100 contractors, suppliers and future partners from across the country
Countryside’s Yorkshire team recently welcomed over 100 contractors, suppliers and future partners from across the UK to its first ever Meet the Partner event in Leeds. As part of the informal networking session, attendees were able to get to know the Countryside team, including Christopher Penn, Managing Director at Countryside Yorkshire, and representatives from the commercial, procurement, production, and customer care teams.
Commitment to building long-term relationships with local people and businesses is key to Countryside’s success across the country. The Meet the Partner event provided the Yorkshire team with a platform to express its gratitude to existing trade contractors and suppliers and discuss opportunities and plans for 2022.
Countryside had also invited potential future partners to the event to share ideas and talk about forthcoming projects in the region, which has been going from strength to strength.
Thanks to the support of its network of partners and local communities, Countryside has successfully delivered thousands of new homes and a wide range of high-quality amenities over the past year, creating places people love despite the challenging circumstances.
Countryside’s Yorkshire team looks forward to continuing its fruitful relationship with its contractors and suppliers for many years to come.
