The summer keeps getting better and better here at DRL because last week we found out that our flagship brand Appliances Online has been nominated for a National Business Award. This is quite an achievement for the business because the National Business Awards are one of the most prestigious award ceremonies around.

We have been nominated for the “Customer Focus Award” which reflects our passion for great customer service and our commitment to getting things right the first time. The National Business Awards attract the UK’s largest and most reputable businesses and our category is no different, the competition reads like a who’s who of the business world and includes fellow North West retailer Pets at Home.

The next step is to present our entry to a distinguished panel of judges in London’s Gherkin Building in September and then onto another glitzy award ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London on Tuesday 8th November, well for a lucky few at least. Let’s hope we can add to our trophy collection and firmly cement our place as one of the UK’s best businesses.
