The judges' verdict was delivered in front of a packed audience featuring the region's leading companies, at Colwick Hall Hotel in Nottingham.
T&S Group, which is based on the Lodge Lane Industrial Estate, is made up of five separate divisions - Mechanical, Electrical Contractors, Security Engineering and Furniture, and has a team of over 50 workers.
T&S was invited to enter the Chamber's Notts Business Awards after hearing about the major expansion at Tuxford, recent contract wins and the ambitious plans for the future.
The company recently invested more than £500,000 in two new factories to manufacture products for its Security Engineering and Furniture divisions.
The awards judging process included a visit to T&S by Chamber representatives, and a presentation being made about the Group and its achievements to be shown to the audience on awards evening.
T&S had heard in advance of the evening that it had made the final three in the 'Business of the Year' category.
Having grabbed the main Nottinghamshire prize T&S Group now gains automatic entry into the British Chambers of Commerce awards, with a chance of winning a £50,000 cash prize.
MD Jamie Smith said: "We are absolutely delighted, and I have to say a little shocked when the announcement was made.
"We were really not expecting to win an award this prestigious so early in the Group's development.
"However, it is a great testament to the progress we have made, the team we have built and the quality of output we are achieving."
