Outdo named in Yorkshire Fastest 50 for the fifth time

Outdo has been recognised as one of Yorkshire’s fastest-growing businesses for the fifth time, earning a place in the Ward Hadaway Yorkshire Fastest 50.

The awards, held in partnership with The Yorkshire Post, rank the region’s top-performing independent companies based on sustained growth over three years. Outdo placed 26th in this year’s list.

Outdo’s continued inclusion reflects a clear and consistent approach to growth, with investment in its people, the integration of AI across the business, and a focus on strengthening the value of premium classic outdoor advertising.

Mike Brennan, CEO of Outdo, said:

“Being named in the Fastest 50 for the fifth time is a clear indicator of how innovation has supported Outdo’s growth over a sustained period.

“At Outdo, innovation starts with our people. We’re investing in building a team that can use AI and emerging technologies to spot opportunities, improve efficiency and drive change across the business.

“While much of the industry has been racing to digitise, our strategy has been different. We’ve focused on strengthening the value of high-quality classic sites. In a world where digital and AI blur what’s real, classic formats offer trust, authenticity and stronger impact for advertisers.”

Emma Digby, Executive Partner at Ward Hadaway’s Leeds office, added:

“Achieving this level of sustained growth requires discipline as well as ambition, and every company included in this year’s list deserves recognition.”

The Yorkshire Fastest 50 recognises businesses that have delivered consistent, profitable growth, something that continues to define Outdo’s trajectory.
