Last night, we attended the FWD Gold Medal Awards at the Old Billingsgate in London, for a night celebrating the best of the wholesale industry.
We are thrilled to share that two members of our JJ team were crowned winners in their respective categories - congratulations to Kane Pearce and Kevin Peacock!
Not forgetting our finalists too, Gosia Lasota and Leyla Motisi!
Wholesale Star: Customer Development Manager
Kane was awarded the gold medal for Wholesale Star: Customer Development Manager, for his proactive approach to targeting new markets to increase JJ's customer base, in turn generating over £700,000 of new sales revenue. Being one of the youngest members of our sales team at JJ, Kane is well-known by his customers and treats their business like it's his own, where his personal approach sets him apart, consistently going above and beyond to meet every customer's needs.
Star Driver
Our hero driver, Kevin from Manchester, was the worthy winner of the Gold Medal for Star Driver. As well as going above and beyond to help his customers, back in the summer, Kevin's courageous actions saved the life of a mother who lost consciousness while driving with her two young children. Kevin quickly sectioned off the car from oncoming traffic and smashed the window to remove the family from danger. He called the emergency services and was praised as an "absolute hero" by our team. His quick thinking and courageous actions prevented a life-threatening situation.
Well done to you both, and to all of the FWD Gold Medal finalists from JJ!
