Go Local store delivers at retail awards

Smith House Post Office, owned by Jasdeep Singh, was given the award at the inaugural Go Local Extra Awards for its outstanding performance in both sales and service.

Mr Singh said: “It’s a great honour for us to win best store overall. Tonight was a fantastic evening and the event lived up to huge expectations.

“We are really ecstatic to win this as it signifies the relentless drive, passion and endeavour to continually push everything, on every front, every day, thus never settling for the status quo.”

David Grimes, managing director of Go Local Extra, said: “The Go Local Extra Awards is a fantastic opportunity for Parfetts to applaud the hard work of all our Go Local retailers.

“Our winners have achieved real business success by listening to their customers and by continually looking for ways to improve the service they offer. We believe this level of dedication deserves to be recognised with a spectacular occasion like this.”

As well as rewarding achievements of individual Go Local stores, the awards acknowledged excellence across all aspects of retail.
