Ableworld recognition in 2018 AMP awards nominations
This entry was posted in General August 9, 2018We are extremely pleased that we have recently been shortlisted in several categories for this year’s 2018 AMP awards. The Access & Mobility Professional awards are to celebrate the achievements of retailers and dealers in the UK mobility industry over the past year. The awards recognise the importance of impeccable customer service, innovative thinking and business success, highlighting both individuals, dealers and store managers. There are ten categories in total, of which we have been shortlisted in five of these, an achievement that we are exceptionally proud of.
The Winners of the awards are to be announced on the night of Sunday 7th October, of which many of our Ableworld staff will be in attendance. The outcome of the AMP awards are entirely decided by the industry, with individuals working for both suppliers and dealers entitled to vote on the finalists that have been shortlisted. The voting is open until Friday 7th September, and can be found here.
The list of our five shortlisted nominations for the following categories at the 2018 AMP Awards are:
- Dealer of the Year (Rest of UK) – Ableworld UK
- Dealer of the Year South – Ableworld Southampton
- Best Customer Service Initiative – Ableworld UK
- Store Manager of the Year – Darren Evans, Ableworld UK
- Unsung Hero of the Year – Louise Mason, Ableworld UK
We are honoured that Ableworld UK has been recognised as a whole, but ecstatic that two of our individual staff, one franchise store and a Head office department has been shortlisted for different categories also. These awards highlight the skilful and passionate staff that we have working at Ableworld, and the dedication that we go to to assist others.
We would be delighted to walk away with all five nominated awards, but we need a lot of help achieving this. The voting is open online now until 7th September and it only takes 5 minutes to complete. Every individual who works for our suppliers is entitled to vote, meaning that anyone who supplies our stores with a service or product is eligible. Unfortunately our customers are not authorised to vote, however we are always appreciative of any feedback or comments we receive. We are grateful of any votes that we obtain and we hope to be announcing some winning results in the near future.
