As winners at their local Bedfordshire SME Business Awards 2017 in the Green Award, Cartridge Depot have now made it through to the SME National Business Awards 2017 in the Green Award category alongside other national businesses which have successfully reached the finals.

Cartridge Depot have worked hard in trying to stop as many cartridges from going into landfill as possible, and to date have stopped over 22400 cartridges going into landfill and being recycled. Cartridge Depot are already a multi award winning company which began trading in 2012 and have gone from strength to strength trading from their store in Bedford town centre.

Cartridge Depot is a local independently family run business specialising in suppling original, compatible and remanufactured printer cartridges to commercial and domestic customers. They aim to help anyone looking to save money on their printer running costs. They urge anyone interested in recycling their empty printer cartridges to contact them on 01234 910908 or pop into their shop based at 30 St. Loyes Street, Bedford, MK40 1EP.

Business Partner Guy Ciampa says: ‘Reaching the finals of a local awards ceremony is amazing in its self, but to be able to be part of a national final is beyond belief, we would have never thought that we would be able to compete against the big companies out there. Fingers crossed we may be able to get another award, not just for us but for Bedford too!’

Business Partner Vincenza Ciampa says: We are so proud and thankful! We would like to thank everyone that has supported us since we began trading, as without them we would not be here! Our work along with our customers and the local community is what has made all this possible so we all deserve a well done!
