For the sixth time, Timbmet has won Hardwood Trader of the Year at the TTJ Awards (Timber Trades Journal Awards) ceremony in London. Held at the Park Lane Hotel on the 17th September, the event was attended by more than 400 representatives from across the industry.
Guest speaker, John Prescott MP, one of the key political figures of the Blair Government, presented the awards to the Timbmet’s Managing Director of Regional Businesses, Nigel Buckley-Ryan.
Nigel commented; “The awards are voted for by our customers and suppliers, which makes it even more gratifying to win. This year some of the comments our customers have made on our behalf include, "They have a great range", "Provide good service plus quick response" and "Have knowledgeable and well trained staff".
“We have now won this award six times, but to win it in a year which has been challenging for the industry, and to have our efforts publicly acknowledged, is praise indeed.”
