Wolseley has been awarded ‘Supplier of the Year’ by customer Interserve, one of the largest facilities management companies in the UK.
The distributor of plumbing and heating products, also a supplier of construction materials, won the prestigious title in Interserve’s annual ‘Best of the Best’ awards, in recognition of its achievements in the fields of ‘Partnership’ and ‘Innovation’.
‘Partnership’ reflects Wolseley’s close collaboration with Interserve to establish a successful dedicated maintenance store in Slough. This provides products and materials solely for the maintenance and repair requirements of Interserve’s client.
‘Innovation’ recognises Wolseley’s work in the field of sustainability, with the investment in its Sustainable Building Center in Leamington Spa. This UK-first facility showcases the latest renewable technologies and sustainable products available today.
Grant Richardson, Sales Director - Wolseley Heavyside division, said:
It is always great to receive external recognition, but to win an award from a customer is extra special and is a credit to the teams involved.
Jon Crump, Procurement Director, from Interserve added:
Partnership and innovation are two of Interserve’s key values and are important factors when we choose to work with suppliers. Wolseley was not only nominated for this award by our operational teams but also clearly demonstrated these values during the last twelve months and are therefore a deserved winner of this award.
