EAW
Honors Top EMEA Distributors with
2008 Awards at PLASA08
Wickford, England – September 22, 2008 –
EAW recently honored this year’s top distributors in the Europe,
Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region with an awards ceremony, held during
PLASA08 in London. Receiving “Distributor of the Year” honors
was Barcelona-based Pro3 & Co., EAW’s distributor for Spain.
Petah Tikva-based Pro Touch Ltd., EAW’s Israeli distributor, won
“Most Improved Distributor.” EAW’s distributor for
the Netherlands, Amsterdam-based Holland PA Services BV, won “Most
Consistent Distributor.” The awards were presented by European
Sales Manager Sean Martin during the company’s annual EMEA Distributor
Meeting at the Chelsea Football Stadium on September 6th.
Martin
credits these key distributors, as well as the entire EAW EMEA sales
force, with producing record numbers in the first half of 2008. He had
particularly complimentary things to say about each of this year’s
three award winners.
“Pro3
[2008 Distributor of the Year] has been EAW Europe’s number one
distributor in terms of sales for the past few years. They have a great
team who fully support and represent the brand exactly as it should
be, so it is no surprise that this effort and enthusiasm is reflected
in their stellar results.
“Pro
Touch [2008 Most Improved Distributor] finds homes for a remarkable
amount of EAW product in Israel. Their increase in sales volume in recent
years is nothing short of meteoric. No stone is left unturned by Pro
Touch.
“Holland
PA [2008 Most Consistent Distributor] is one of EAW’s most long-standing
distributors, and regardless of market or industry ups and downs, their
performance never drops. They are possibly the archetypal distributor
model to which all distributors should aspire.”
Martin
continued, “These awards reflect EAW’s commitment and personal
relationship with the distributor/sales force in the EMEA region. No
one works harder than our distributors, and they help us post the numbers
to prove it. These award-winners set a high bar, and I look forward
to working with our entire team of distributors to match and surpass
it through the rest of 2008 and into 2009.”
