Speciality Paperboard Containers Ltd picked up the New Start Award (sponsored by RiDO) at the Rotherham Business Awards 2009.
The Eastwood Trading Estate enterprise manufactures containers for clients in the ice cream, dairy, confectionery and pet food sectors, and produce secondary packaging for a diverse range of products.
Paul Nixon, managing director of Speciality Paperboard Containers Ltd, said: "Starting your own business is both exciting and challenging. It requires belief in yourself and your team, and enables people to fulfil their dreams.
"At a time when manufacturing looks to be on the decline in the UK, we've shown that you can buck that trend. Winning this award gives us due recognition of our achievements and creates the platform for our continued growth and profitability."
Last year Swedish folding carton supplier, A&R Carton, acquired a 33% stake in the company.
Optimas Training Ltd and UK Water Features were highly commended.
