“These awards recognise the best in our region. Every day we help people be their best, offering short courses and micro-credentials to diplomas, degrees and postgrad qualifications to achieve their goals and upskill the Taranaki region.”
Chamber chief executive Arun Chaudhari says outstanding customer service is what gives any business an edge over its competitors.
“The WITT Top Shop Awards are all about delivering a superior customer experience like no other. This sets a high level of service for the business and its employees to deliver every time to every single customer. We encourage all retail businesses in Taranaki to be nominated for the WITT Top Shop Awards 2023. All the best.”
The nine categories are Home and Furnishings, Lifestyle, Leisure and Health, Hair and Beauty, Specialty Store, Food and Beverage — for both Eat In and Take Out, Fashion, Footwear and Accessories, Accessibility and Service Person of the Year.
The 10 businesses with the most nominations in each category are then mystery judged.
All category winners, North, Central and South regional winners and the Supreme winner will be announced at the awards evening on Saturday, June 17.
In-store and online nominations at taranakitopshop.co.nz are now open until noon on Monday, May 1.
Anyone who makes a nomination will be in the draw to win a $150 Marbles restaurant voucher from The Devon Hotel.
