The Hydraulics Online team is celebrating a super night of award wins at our local chamber of commerce’s annual awards – where we scooped awards recognising our excellent customer service and international trade.

The South Cheshire Chamber of Commerce Business Awards were presented during a glittering ceremony at Crewe Hall on Friday 24th November 2017.  We are delighted to announce that we were recognised for three of the awards presented on the night:

• Winner – Excellence in Customer Service
• Winner – International Trader of the Year
• Highly Commended – Ambassador of the Year

Running a vibrant, growing, global business, there really are never enough hours in the day.  We’re always so busy, looking forwards at things we want to do to drive the business forward.  We rarely pause to look back and reflect on how far we’ve actually come.

These three awards are fabulous recognition of our success to date.  We set such high standards for ourselves that our daily successes almost become the norm; never taken for granted, but we don’t really pat ourselves on the back either.

Entering the awards was a perfect opportunity to take stock.  In so doing, and by allowing our business to be scrutinised and judged by others outside it – all experts in their own fields, it has provided even more certainty that we are on the right track, and that we really do stand out from the crowd.  As a result, our vision for Hydraulics Online is now clearer than ever.

Because this really has been such a team effort, we’d like to share a few words from some of our team about what winning the awards means to them.

Joanna says: “It gives me confidence knowing that I’m working for an ambitious and successful company. I’m really proud of what we’ve achieved. Nobody tells us what to do; when we have ideas we can just implement them and winning the awards is just affirmation that we’re doing everything right.”

Ian says: “It’s confirmation that what we’re achieving has now been verified by external peer groups and it reinforces the fact that we’re on the right track.”

Mark says: “It’s great recognition for our hard work, our commitment to always putting the customer first and the high standards that we expect of ourselves, day in and day out.”

Steve says: “It just goes to prove that we’re a kind and caring company; it proves we really try and help the customer.”

Since we so rarely get time to take stock, we’d also like to take this opportunity to thank all our team for their continued hard work and dedication and all our customers for giving us the opportunity to serve them and demonstrate our commitment to excellent customer service.  We hope you have all enjoyed the ride as much as we have – and look forward to many more years of excellent customer service and international growth.
