The Deloitte Fast 50 index has been celebrating business growth in New Zealand since 2001. The Fast 50 is a Deloitte initiative which operates in 32 countries or regions worldwide. The Deloitte Fast 50 index has become a barometer of successful, innovative businesses across the country. Entries to the index are compiled through a combination of Deloitte research, public nominations, and businesses stepping up to be benchmarked. Businesses that choose to enter and meet the entry criteria are then ranked according to their percentage revenue growth. The 50 businesses with the highest percentage growth made up the 2011 Deloitte Fast 50.

The Fast 50 Index placement comes at the end of a highly awarded year for Cemix. Cemix Envirocrete, made from 50% recycled materials, received 2 sustainability awards, including the Ministry for the Environment’s Green Ribbon Awards, plus Cemix was a finalist for Supplier of the Year in the building industry’s Hardware Awards. Bhav Dhillon, Cemix CEO, commented, ‘All of this recognition has been achieved through a combination of innovation, product development and being consistently customer-centric. We have revised all our packaging over the past 24 months and responded to our customer needs, creating new products to match the market’.
