Palletways goes Platinum
In the last issue we announced which members had won our network's
highest accolade - the Platinum Club award.
In total, 27 members were awarded Platinum Club status for delivering
the highest levels of performance, commitment to customer service
and compliance in the network over the past 12 months. So, when it
came to rewarding this elite group, we pulled out all the stops and just a
few weeks ago, treated them to a five star London experience.
Members enjoyed wine tasting on the London Eye, a boat trip along
the Thames, followed by dinner and overnight stay in the luxurious
ME Hotel in the Strand.
Barry Byers, Network Director Palletways (UK) Ltd, said:
"We would like to congratulate all 27 members for being the top
performers in our UK network. Providing customers with a fast,
reliable and efficient service is our top priority, and these awards
highlight the dedication of our members to meeting the very
highest standards."
Members were officially presented with their framed certificate at
Palletways' Sales Conference.
Six of the Best
Six top sales performers in the network across the UK have been
recognised by Palletways.
They include Gilbraiths (highest volume activity) and Kenyon Road
Haulage (highest new trading accounts) from the Northern hub
catchment area. In addition, members and owned operations including
Hastings Freight, Palletways London, Palletways Central Sales and
Frederick R Miller received awards for their year-on-year European
sales increases.
Luis Zubialde in presenting the awards said:
"I would like to thank all the award winners for their outstanding
sales achievements which are vital to the commercial success of
our business. It also reflects the winners' overriding commitment
to customer service excellence and the value our network
provides beyond simply taking goods from A to B."
