LOURDES GANT OF MANATEE HOLDINGS LTD. WINS SILVER STEVIE® AWARD IN 2018 INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS AWARDS®

Winners to Be Celebrated at Gala Event on 20 October in London, England

Courtenay, BC - 14 August, 2018 - Lourdes Gant of Manatee Holdings Ltd. was named the winner of a silver Stevie® Award in the Woman of the Year category in the 15th Annual International Business Awards® yesterday.

The International Business Awards are the world’s premier business awards program. All individuals and organizations worldwide – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small - are eligible to submit nominations. The 2018 IBAs received entries from 74 nations and territories.

Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word for “crowned,” the awards will be presented to winners at a gala awards banquet at the InterContinental London Park Lane Hotel in London, England on 20 October. 

More than 3,900 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, including Company of the Year, Marketing Campaign of the Year, Best New Product or Service of the Year, Startup of the Year, Corporate Social Responsibility Program of the Year, and Executive of the Year, among others.  Lourdes Gant of Manatee Holdings Ltd. won in the Woman of the Year category for the aquaculture and fishing industries.

Lourdes Gant was also the recipient of the Silver Stevie in 2017 for the same category. Here are some of the judges’ comments about her entry: “more multi-cultural, more environmental and more humanistic accomplishments to make the world a better place;” “She has done an unbelievable job by taking care of the environment while doing business.”  “With the difficult environment that we are all experiencing comes a challenge that require special people with a vision on how to adapt to changes that is outside our control.  That vision requires a person with strong belief that they can make a change. It’s evident with Lourdes that she has what it takes to lead and innovate that can only happen from a person with leadership and management qualities.”

Stevie Award winners were determined by the average scores of more than 270 executives worldwide who participated on 12 juries.

“This year’s Stevie Award winners in the IBAs are the most distinguished group of winners we’ve had yet,” said Michael Gallagher, president and founder of the Stevie Awards. “We raised the minimum average score from the judges required to qualify as a Stevie winner, so 2018 winners should be especially proud of their achievements.  We look forward to presenting their Stevies to them in London on October 20, and to telling "their stories over the coming year through Stevie Awards media.”
