We’re proud to announce that Bargate has been shortlisted for ‘High Growth Story of the Year’ at the 2026 Solent 250 Awards, having also been ranked among the Top 100 privately-owned businesses in the Solent region by annual turnover.
The Solent 250 recognises the region’s leading private companies. The ‘High Growth Story of the Year’ award celebrates businesses that have achieved significant year-on-year growth, can demonstrate a compelling strategy and are well placed to continue that momentum.
The nomination follows a landmark year for our business. During 2024/25, we delivered 250 homes, achieved our highest turnover to date and continued to expand our development pipeline, which now exceeds 2,500 future homes.
Last year also marked a major milestone with the start of construction of our 100th development at Shepherds Green in the New Forest, and we celebrated a five-star rating in the Home Builders Federation (HBF) Customer Satisfaction Survey. This recognition demonstrates that our growth continues to be matched by positive experiences for homeowners across our developments.
The Solent 250 Awards will take place later this summer.
