A STEVENSTON garage was recently crowned as Scotland’s Forecourt Retailer of the Year at an awards ceremony in Glasgow.
JET’s Ardeer Services in Stevenston was crowned with the title at the Scottish Local Retailer (SLR) Rewards 2018 ceremony.
The awards ceremony was held at Glasgow’s Radisson Blu hotel on June 20, with the brightest and best of the industry gathered together for an evening of entertainment, hosted by Scottish TV presenter and comedian Des Clarke.
Owner of Ardeer Services, Mahmood Saleem, said: “We are thrilled to win this award. In August it will be two years since we re-opened and since then we have gone from strength to strength.
"I would like to thank our customers who continue to support the store, and, of course, my staff who go above and beyond to offer a great customer experience every day.
"It’s wonderful to receive this industry-wide recognition.”
Antony Begley, Publishing Director of SLR, adds: “Mahmood Saleem’s JET Ardeer was the star of the show last year, helping him pick up the Scottish Local Retailer of the Year Award along with a trip to the NACS Conference in Chicago.
"This year he has not only managed to maintain those standards, he’s improved on them.”
