Corks Out Nominated for three National Awards

PRLog (Press Release) - Dec. 10, 2011 - Corks Out's successful year continues - having wone three national awards earlier in the year, it has now been nominations for three more awards. Over the summer, the company won the International Wine Challenge (IWC) Large Independent Retailer of the Year 2011 award, as well as Top Merchant Best Retailer 2011, and National Drinks Retailing Awards Independent Wine Retailer of 2011.

Now it has been nominated for a further three awards - Online/Direct Mail Retailer of the Year, Champagne Retailer of the Year, and Spirit Retailer of the Year.  These awards reflect the company's determination to keep innovating and providing value to customers. In November, it launched a website optimised for mobile phones which has proved to be immensely popular with customers. As has been a very successful champagne sale which has delivered some of the best discount champagne offers on the internet this Christmas (see http://www.corksout.com/categories/Offers/Champagne-and-F...).

Phil Smith, e-Commerce Director at Corks Out, said "It is a wonderful achievement to be nominated for these awards. We stock an excellent selection of wines, champagnes, and spirits and this year has seen us work hard to present these to customers is a more accessible manner, leveraging new media and mobile devices."

Corks Out also offers an extensive range of some wonderfully rare and exclusive spirits including an exceptional range of grappa (found at http://www.corksout.com/categories/Spirits/Grappa) and whisky ( http://www.corksout.com/categories/Spirits/Malt-Whisky-%2...). Mr Smith felt that it was the quality of the range that contributed to the awards "It is good to see we are getting recognised for the care that we put into selecting products. We work hard to find the best and the most unusual spirits, whilst always keeping an eye on value for money".

The awards will be announded on the 7th February 2012 at the Dorchester Hotel. It is a fair bet that all the staff at Corks Out will be crossing their fingers for a successfu night.
