With the Safety & Health Excellence Awards around the corner on the 26th of April at NEC Birmingham, Tower Supplies are hoping an amazing 2022 is rewarded with the Distributor of the Year Award. Out of the thousands of distributors of PPE, Tower are on a shortlist of just three to win.
Focusing through four lenses – innovation, sustainability, partnership, and experience – Tower offer an extensive range of 250,000 safety, workwear, and hygiene products to some of the most dangerous working environments in the world. Prioritising the needs of customers, they use unrivalled expertise and knowledge to deliver solutions that improve efficiency and operations.
But what made 2022 so special for Tower? To meet the growing health & safety demands of their customer base, Tower have invested in their people to grow the team by 37% between January 2022 and December 2022. And with their Cruise division including the likes of Carnival UK, they have also added a new distribution centre to their operations in Dorset to cater specifically for that industry.
Tower also invested in technology, including the continual improvement of their CtrlCloud online ordering platform offering to make it even easier for customers to create their tailored catalogue and allocate products to their workers. Their new product information management (PIM) has also been developed to help sales teams find and recommend products more quickly and efficiently.
With the growing need for businesses to be more sustainable, Tower have become the partner that can be relied on to provide the right solutions and services that help customers reduce, reuse, and recycle. With their sights fixed firmly on net zero, Tower have also teamed up with Amber, an award-winning energy management consultancy, to progress their Scope 1, 2 and 3 journey.
Tower have been a British Safety Industry Federation (BSIF) Registered Safety Supplier since 2017. Their senior management team are members of BSIF special interest groups and understand the latest information about standards and tests. Tower also have BSIF Safe Supply qualified staff, and consistently take advantage of the BSIF’s continuous product training programme.
Tower had an incredible 2022, exceeding their sales forecast and making big investments in people, technology, and operations. Regardless of whether they are rewarded with such a prestigious award, they are proud to have been recognised on the shortlist and will continue to put customer safety and satisfaction at the heart of what they do to deliver exceptional customer service.
