Follow on Google News | Water Coolers Direct Scoops Small Business of Year AwardWinners were announced last Thursday for this year’s prestigious Gloucestershire Business Awards. Despite tough competition, the Small Business of the Year award was proudly won by Water Coolers Direct.
By: Cathryn Hage / Victoria Ward ‘The winning of this award is a fitting tribute to the hard work and dedication shown by our colleagues during the last six years. From our small beginnings in a loft we have built a successful company that posted a healthy 20% growth during last year’s recession. This accolade will certainly benefit our business and operations in the county and beyond, as we continue to take the company forward in these challenging times,” said Fred Cairns Palmer, managing director. As an online company, and yet different to other suppliers who focus purely on costly rental contracts, Water Coolers Direct (WCD) sells a wide range of water coolers to customers who want to pay outright and realise savings of over 80%. This flexibility means no fluctuating costs, heavy bottles to change and store, deposits to administer, and it is a more efficient, environmentally friendly water beverage offering. With over 11,000 customers and the widest range of products, WCD continues to build a successful and profitable business in selling ‘greener water’ solutions! Ian Mean, editor in chief of Gloucestershire Media, said: “This is the highlight of the county’s business year ... we had a record attendance of nearly 700. This is now the largest business awards in the country.” About Water Coolers Direct WCD is a leading UK online water cooler company, and boasts an extensive installed base of 11,000+ products in use across the UK; from schools, universities and sports clubs, to blue chips, corporates, offices and homes.
