Good Vibes for eco firms

THE countdown is on for eco-minded firms to enter the race to be crowned the city’s greenest business.

There is just one week left for companies to submit their bid for the 2012 Vision in Business for the Environment of Scotland (Vibes) Awards. The deadline is July 6.

The green awards scheme, now in its 13th year, aims to recognise firms of all sizes employing environmental best practice in their day-to-day activity to cut down on resource use, increase sustainability, improve reputation and benefit the company’s bottom line.

This year, there will be a total of nine awards, including a new category – the collaboration award.
