Hide Ad"Thompson's has been a supporter of the Echo Portfolio awards since the very first event, so we are delighted to be able to continue in sponsoring these awards which are so important to the city.
"We have been lucky enough in the past to also have been a winner and so we know how well regarded these awards are and how much it means to the companies who are recognised in this way.
"We have had a presence in Sunderland for over 60 years, with Thompson Waste Centre continuing to work wherever possible with other local companies, as well as doing everything we can to protect the environment which has always been a passion of ours.
"Much of the waste we deal with is recycled and used in industries such as construction so we feel we have a really important role to play and are very proud to be able to continue to do this on a daily basis, while also being able to constantly reinvest in the company and provide employment for local people."
