RETAILER OF THE YEAR!
I am unbelievably proud and totally speechless, unusual for me, to have been awarded this amazing accolade from within our own fantastic industry! What a weekend, our 11th Anniversary at Wysall and now this. I was absolutely devastated that Tiggy and I weren't there as we have been struggling with chest infections and felt unable to attend.
Thank you to all of our amazing customers for the nominations that were sent in. The words of some of them brought me to tears. On behalf of my team and I, we are so humble to he held in such high regard and it makes what we do so hugely worthwhile. Thank you to Equilibrium Products for sponsoring this award we are very very proud to receive it. We work within the best Industry there is. Lins xx
