At a star studded event in Harrogate, TopSpec, well known for their range of feed balancers and other innovative horse feeds, won the Best Rural Business category at the Harrogate Advertiser Business Awards.
The 10th anniversary celebration of the awards was held at the Majestic Hotel and brought together leading businesses throughout the Yorkshire region.

Guests were treated to a fantastic dinner before the awards ceremony began and this was followed by the presentation of 13 prestigious awards including the Best Rural Business section, sponsored this year by the Yorkshire Agricultural Company.
Pickhill-based TopSpec held off stiff competition to secure the prestigious prize, much to the delight of everyone in this forward thinking team.
