Providing an outstanding level of service at a challenging time has earned Danilo the honour of winning Supplier of the Year for Calendar Club.
It’s the first time the award has gone to the family-run company, which is Europe’s leading publisher of licensed calendars, along with greeting cards, giftwrap, gift bags and diaries.
“Our Supplier of the Year trophy is awarded in recognition of an outstanding level of service delivered during the previous calendar selling season,” said Calendar Club buyer Rob Dand. While Rob said that there had some “genuinely tough competition”, the retailer was proud to give the award to Danilo for the first time.
“We all know how challenging the past couple of years have been for the retail sector. Against the backdrop of a global pandemic and a well-documented shipping crisis, the whole team at Danilo went above and beyond for us on a number of occasions, and the level of service we enjoyed was certainly worthy of recognition. The challenge for them will be to repeat this next year,” added Rob.
Accepting the award, Danilo managing director Daniel Prince said: “We are truly delighted to have won this award for the first time – thanks to Calendar Club and our hardworking Danilo team.”
Calendar Club traded from 220 locations in UK and Ireland in the last calendar season, up from 180 stores in the previous year.
