Eco was named Outstanding Large Business of the Year, while Managing Director Eddie Black picked up the Outstanding Business Person award.
The winners were announced at a black tie event at Easterbrook Hall in Dumfries, where representatives from businesses throughout the region gathered to recognise and celebrate their achievements.
After picking up the awards, Eddie paid tribute to his team, which includes more than 70 people.
He said: "These awards are a result of the team's positive attitude and commitment to making a difference to the business and to the community. The past two years have been challenging for everyone, and I'm extremely proud of the way we have pulled together to create opportunities, build on our successes and been flexible and adaptable to the changing business landscape."

"We want to create something which is sustainable, something that lasts, and has a positive impact, not only for Eco but also for the economy in Dumfries and Galloway and for our communities."
