Award for Stelrad’s National Sales Director

Stelrad’s National Sales Director David Bainbridge has been awarded the Most Engaged Supplier Team Member at an annual awards event for the Plumbing Heating Group (PHG).

One of the leading buying groups in the UK, the Plumbing Heating Group hosted its Annual Supplier Awards at Carden Park Hotel in Chester at the end of May to celebrate and recognise excellence in the plumbing, heating and bathroom industry.

The yearly event is one of the largest independent gatherings of plumbing, heating & bathroom suppliers and independent merchants in the calendar.

The merchant buying group now has 13 members operating out of 276 branches across the UK plumbing, heating & bathroom sector.

David Pochin, Chairman at PHG said: “The PHG supplier awards brings together the best of the Independent Plumbing and Heating merchants and their chosen suppliers for an evening of celebration and entertainment. Congratulations to all the supplier nominees and award winners.”

After a string of awards to supplier companies, David Bainbridge was honoured with an individual award, the Most Engaged Supplier Team Member. David was so committed that he wasn’t able to be at the awards on the day, so he met up with chairman of PHG David Pochin a few weeks later to accept his award.

“It’s always rewarding to win awards and this one was special,” said David. “Although this award was given to me it highlights the relationship Stelrad has with PHG and its members and really is an award for Stelrad and the team that supports PHG on a day to day basis. We won this award because of the quality of the team, the quality of our customer support and the quality of the products we supply. Overall it’s a very pleasing award to win and it was a pleasure to accept it on behalf of the Stelrad team.”

As part of the celebrations on the day, guests were able to take part in a golf competition and outdoor activities, including axe throwing, air rifle shooting, rollerball, duck herding and zip lining at Carden Park during the day, followed by an Awards Dinner at the Carden Park Hotel in the evening.

The Awards ceremony included a speech from David Pochin, chairman at PHG and to conclude the evening, comedian, ventriloquist and winner of 2015 ‘America’s Got Talent’, Paul Zerdin entertained the audience.

PHG raised £4,200 for Air Ambulances UK after hosting a charity raffle at the event.
