Excellence in Housewares Awards 2020

WELCOME TO THE EXCELLENCE IN HOUSEWARES AWARDS 2020 None of us could have predicted how this year would go. It almost seems like yesterday when the industry was travelling to Spring Fair and Ambiente, and the murmuring news of a strange new virus was just starting to become known. Little did we know that this would turn into a global pandemic, the first for many of our lifetimes.

There have been many tragic losses and some extraordinary tough times for everyone both on the business and personal front. And so, while we are here to celebrate, we do pay our respects to everyone who has suffered in any way, shape or form.

Indeed, though, there are always positives to be found. Resilience, a reminder of our fantastic health service, a new appreciation for our friendships and relationships – again both at work and at home. We’ve all found out what our support network really looks like when the going gets tough.

Above: PH team (left to right): Rob Willis, publishing director, Emma Cain, product Likewise, converting your industry’s big night into a digital event page editor, John Barry, advertisement seemed impossible, until our own support network stood tall with us manager and Jo Howard, editor. and insisted that the show must go on. More products than ever were entered, the number of judges was increased, as was the time they were able to spend judging via the online portal. The proud sponsors remained just that. As an industry we have really worked together to help each other through the year – we thank you and we feel very sure you’re all thanking each other.

As will be highlighted this evening, one thing we can all be grateful for – as a sector united – is the thousands if not millions of new bakers, home-chefs and families who have re-engaged with what it means to cook and organise a home using the incredible products and retailers this market has to offer. Let us keep them in our sights and enjoy maintaining that momentum.

Tonight is all about the fun. Seeing each other – just when you thought you’d been ‘Zoomed out’ for the year. Celebrating excellence, networking, plus the joys of some of tonight’s special guest appearances including none other than one of the top faces of cooking, Nadiya Hussain. Plus some other guest appearances from our own sector A-listers including Bheta’s Will Jones and Bira Direct’s Jeff Moody. Their book deals cannot be far away now!

Despite the digital event and the connection that it continues to offer, rest assured we are well aware that you want to get back to your industry’s Oscars.

The contract is already signed for the live event in 2021 and we will be back to the black ties, posh frocks and – with any luck – a lot of hugs.

Thank you once again for joining our Stay updated with The Excellence in travelling show. We really couldn’t do it without Housewares Awards news - plus every other you. happening in the sector by signing up to HousewaresNews.net, the new digital Rob Willis, Jo Howard, John Barry, Emma Cain – resource from Progressive Housewares. and the rest of the Progressive Housewares Team.

EXCELLENCE IN SPONSORED BY

RETAIL INITIATIVE

Criteria: This award is for a single recent initiative to promote the sale of housewares products and/or raise the profile of the retailer and foster customer loyalty (from any housewares retailer, whether independent or multiple).

2020 FINALISTS

Barkers and Barkers Home, Northallerton

FOR ITS FIZZ BANG POP CHRISTMAS

The ‘Fizz Bang Pop’ design concept was reflected in Barkers’ window and in-store displays and its new Christmas magazine for 2019, created inhouse with dedicated product photo-shoots.

The design theme was festive partying, champagne, retro tinsel, neon and pink. The magazine was bursting with inspiration for gifts that included housewares.

John Lewis & Partners FOR ITS NHS MUG

During lockdown and beyond, John Lewis & Partners has been supporting the NHS in a variety of ways, including the creation of a fundraising mug. The NHS mug was designed in-house and produced in the UK, with all profits going to support NHS charities. By the summer, John Lewis had sold over 10,000 mugs..

Borough Kitchen

Hart of Stur

During lockdown Borough Kitchen launched its online cook school, offering ‘cookalongs’ and specialist classes, helping customers to learn new skills and techniques in their kitchens. This also provided the opportunity to promote online sales for related products. Online classes continue to be popular, in addition to physical Covid-19 compliant small classes in Borough Kitchen’s re-opened Cook Schools.

Harts ran a campaign to promote the KitchenAid Velvet Blue collection as the retailer’s exclusive colour – so successful that it was extended into the first quarter of 2020. Both the Velvet Blue Artisan Mixer and 9-Speed Hand Blender were the most popular colours in their respective categories. By summer, over 2,000 units of the Velvet Blue range had been sold.

Launched in August 2019, the myLakeland loyalty programme gained over 700,000 members in its first year, with nearly two million personalised offer packs distributed.

HOUSEWARES

The introduction of the Tea Emporium encourages customers to keep coming back to refill their caddies (saving waste and trying new teas) as well as forging Wroes’ reputation as a specialist in tea products. Visitors love Wroes’ unique gifting options, including its own Tea Emporium biscuits. Customers are tempted with cold and hot brews, and Wroes is continually developing new ideas such as tea-infused gin.

Our portfolio is about much more than a tangible collection of products it’s about a way of life.

Tramontina is delighted to sponsor the Retail Employee of the Year category and wish all finalists the best of luck!

THE YEAR

Criteria: Nomination of retail employees who make a difference with their enthusiastic, attentive and knowledgeable service (and who could be considered ‘the unsung heroes’ of the shop floor or customer services team).

2020 FINALISTS

Caroline Aldridge, sales consultant FENWICK BRENT CROSS

Caroline’s positivity has a huge positive impact on all of her colleagues and customers, who regularly praise her and go out of their way to thank her. In what has been a challenging time, Caroline (who joined Fenwick 11 years ago) never fails to leave a smile on everyone's face. Her product knowledge is exceptional and she gives fantastic advice that has technical knowledge at its foundation, while always being friendly, approachable and supportive.

Anne Brailsford, cookshop manager CAMP HOPSON, NEWBURY

She is a true asset to the team and a great support to her managers.

Sarah Hardingham, consultant, DINGHAMS, SALISBURY AND WINCHESTER

Sarah ran Dinghams for 20 years, winning multiple awards. Three and a half years ago she stepped back to travel, but couldn't get away that easily. She has been a constant support, helping Becca get to grips with running the business. Salisbury has had a tough time (Novichok and Covid) but Sarah always highlights the positives. She is multi-talented - helping with ordering, staff issues, photography, videography, shop development, training and more.

Margherita Contu, assistant store manager

She has also built a good rapport with customers, resulting in ever-increasing numbers of loyal shoppers thanks to her fantastic customer service.

Having joined three years ago, Jenni’s buying and merchandising talents keep her at the forefront of the garden and home industry. She is always busy and staff members rely on her for advice. Always at hand for customer queries, Jenni is a relationship builder with reps. She has such an amazing eye for all things retail, with a talent for bringing colours and products together to create outstanding displays a nd future-proof shopping experiences.

COOKS BOUTIQUE, LETCHWORTH

Shane (who joined the company four years ago) has an extensive knowledge of both housewares and electrical departments. When he receives something new he researches it to ensure he can answer customers’ questions.

Shane is great at coaching and mentoring his team, providing a role model who offers the best customer service. Flexible and adaptable, Shane is a pleasure to work with and a great asset to the team.

There is nobody like Joyce - the longest serving member of staff in Cook & Dine (45 years). She leads by example to upskill, train and support her colleagues.

Polite, personable and never without a smile, Joyce is an encyclopaedia of knowledge on pans and her customer service is impeccable. Customers regularly compliment Joyce and specifically ask for her to help them, resulting in hundreds (or even thousands) of £pounds worth of additional sales.
