Sirius Members were privy to a range of supplier presentations which were supplemented by a full day for set for oneto-one meetings, and of course the Awards Dinner which is always a main focus of the conference event. There were therefore, plenty of networking opportunities where suppliers and members could forge new relationships, as well as strengthen existing ones.
The Annual Gala Awards Dinner was a great social evening and Sirius would like to make a special mention of everyone’s generosity during the Charity Auction. The donations from its Members and Suppliers helped the group raise £12,000 for Disasters Emergency Committee, with all monies going towards humanitarian aid in the current crisis taking place in Ukraine. “Thank you to all in helping us raise money towards this worthwhile cause” said Steve Jones, Managing Director at Sirius Buying Group. “We also presented our 2022 Retailer and Supplier Awards during the Gala Dinner. Our Sirius Awards provide a great platform for our Members and Approved Suppliers to be recognised amongst their peers for their support, presence and growth within the Group.”
