ETM Group has been identified as one of London Stock Exchange’s 1000 Companies to Inspire Britain. The report is a celebration of the UK’s fastest-growing and most dynamic small and medium sized businesses.
Brothers Tom and Ed Martin have opened 15 venues since ETM Group formed in 2000 including: the famous Botanist Sloane Square; City gastropub The Jugged Hare, and most recently their first opening outside of London, The Six Bells, near Lavenham in Suffolk which is listed in the Michelin Eating Out in Pubs Guide 2016 alongside sister ETM venue, Ealing Park Tavern in South Ealing.
Co-founder Ed Martin said:
“We’re very proud to have been recognised in the latest edition of London Stock Exchange’s 1000 Companies to Inspire Britain report. The 15-and-a-half years since we set up ETM Group has flown by and things are far from slowing down. We opened three new venues last year, Ealing Park Tavern, The Botanist Broadgate Circle and The Six Bells in Suffolk and have plenty more exciting activities in the pipeline for 2016.
Xavier Rolet, Chief Executive, London Stock Exchange Group said:
“High growth SMEs are the driving force behind the UK economy, developing the skills, jobs and growth we need. But ambition alone is not enough; their success must be highlighted and their growth properly supported with appropriate finance. That’s why today’s event is so important: demonstrating the strong alliance between UK Government, financial market participants, investors, entrepreneurs and companies to support these inspiring businesses.
“Today’s celebration is fundamental to London Stock Exchange’s core, the need to support UK high growth companies in their journeys from Start-up to Stardom and create an entrepreneurship revolution.”
Writing in the publication, The Rt. Hon. George Osborne MP said:
“UK high-growth businesses are leading the charge in rebuilding our economy. These companies are the backbone of the British economy. They create high-quality, well paid jobs, innovate and drive economic growth. This government fully understands the need to support ambitious entrepreneurs and ensure they can access the finance they need to grow.
“We have held the steadfast belief that –alongside deficit reduction – nurturing entrepreneurs, creating jobs, supporting hard-working families and keeping taxes low would get the UK economy back on track. Our measures to increase access to finance for business and encourage more investment have had a transformative effect on our economy.”
