EW Award winners announced! W
elcome to the October issue of Electrical Wholesaler. As I write this, I am reminiscing about the Electrical Wholesaler Awards, which took place yesterday at the beautiful Chelsea Harbour Hotel. It was a stunning, sunny September day, and many guests took advantage of the weather to enjoy their welcome drinks outside on the balcony, overlooking the boats in the harbour. At the ceremony itself, it was my privilege to address an audience of electrical professionals, who had gathered with industry colleagues and friends to celebrate and reward excellence across the sector.
You can see the list of winning wholesalers, suppliers and manufacturers online now at www.
electricalwholesalerwards.co.uk, and a full write-up of the event with a photo gallery will be featured in the November issue. A huge congratulations again to all our winners and highly commended entrants. On to the issue. Among this month’s excellent crop of features is a closer look at experts in safe isolation
