PR - UK Call Center-ARM Firm Wins Double Recognition

 
Garlands Call Centres is celebrating two industry award wins this month.

At the National Outsourcing Association’s annual awards held on Thursday 18th October, Garlands overcame tough competition to scoop the Outsourced Contact Centre Service Provider of the Year award – with the judges stating that Garlands "demonstrated an excellent standard of service across a wide range of clients, adding considerable value to its clients’ businesses". The judges also complimented the company on its "commitment to best practice in people, training and workplace environment".

This recognition of Garlands’ corporate success follows hard on the heels of a personal success for Chief Executive Chey Garland. Earlier this month, Chey was named the ‘Direct Marketing Business Person of the Year’ at the Connect awards, an event hosted by Marketing Direct and Direct Response magazines. One of the judges said of Chey’s achievements, "I’m blown away by someone who has had 30 years of trading….. as well as given something back to the community while being the public face of the industry."

"We couldn’t be more pleased" said Jim Bainbridge, Commercial Director or Garlands. "It’s wonderful news for the business and for Chey – and recognition of the hard work and tremendous achievements of Garlands’ people this year."
