Direct Diamond Supplier Awards

Every year we invite our Direct promoted suppliers to attend our Direct Suppliers Away Day event incorporating the annual Direct Diamond Supplier Awards. The Awards are very prestigious and are a way of acknowledging those suppliers that have achieved outstanding performance in different areas with our members. The Direct Diamond Supplier Awards are the highlight of the day as at least two of the categories are voted for by BHF-BSSA Group retailers, so it really means a lot to be a Direct Diamond Award Winner!
The following awards are presented each year and below are the current winners who were presented the awards at the Direct Diamond Awards Ceremony held on 14th April 2010:
