The Australian Retail Association has opened entries for its 2016 eftpos Australian Retail Awards.
The awards have been presented annually for more than 40 years, with the aim of recognising the breadth and depth of achievement and talent in the Australian retail industry.
Major event sponsor eftpos is supporting the awards for a third consecutive year.
“Retail plays a vital role in the daily lives of all Australians and it’s important that we recognise the industry’s contribution through these awards,” eftpos Managing Director Bruce Mansfield said.
ARA Executive Director Russell Zimmerman says the awards showcase one of Australia’s most important industries.
“The ARA awards represent a national platform to showcase the best of the industry, recognising the extraordinary and innovative work of those moving retail forward,” he said. “The awards breakfast is an opportunity for retailers to share their inspiring retail success stories and gain industry insights from esteemed guest speakers and valuable sponsors.”
The ARA is encouraging retailers to submit an entry or nominate an exceptional retail employee. Category details, submission forms and early-bird tickets are available now at the ARA website.
