Family Business Top 100 Recognition For Paddy Dyson


We are delighted to announce that Stephen (‘Paddy’) Dyson of HMG Paints has been included within the inaugural Family Business United ‘Family Business Top 100,’ which recognises the exceptional contribution of individuals and their work within a family business.


Recognition in respect of:

  • Inspirational Leadership

  • Champion of Change & Innovation

  • Next Generation Champion

  • Family Business Steward

Paddy joined HMG Paints Ltd at 18 years old (19 years ago) following in his fathers footsteps. Starting from humble beginnings in the label printing room, Paddy quickly became noticed by peers for his dedication & enthusiasm for the family business.


Paddy put himself forward for the new Marketing Manager position in 2008 & has since completely transformed the branding and marketing of HMG Paints with the family values at the core of everything that is done. Throughout his time in the business Paddy has also been an ambassador for HMG taking part in talks and judging panels for industry & family business events such as Family Business United.


In 2019 Paddy was a finalist for the Young Leader of the Year Award due to his achievements throughout his time at HMG. From creating internal engaging content for staff around the family values of the business to promoting them externally, Paddy has a skill set that is second to none & continues to go above & beyond for HMG & his peers.


Paddy is an exceptional individual and totally committed to the family business in which he works, as well as the broader family business community and thoroughly deserves recognition for all that he does and is a deserving recipient of a place in the Family Business Top 100.
