Bi-silque was one of the winners of the 17th
European Office Products Awards (
EOPA), which were announced during a glittering presentation dinner at the Hotel Okura in Amsterdam on 6 March 2018.
The annual
EOPA were once again presented as part of
OPI’s
Partnership event – which this year for the fifth time brought together senior executives from Europe’s reseller and vendor communities for strategic one-to-one meetings.
The
EOPA 2018 presentation dinner, hosted by
OPI CEO Steve Hilleard and
OPI Director Janet Bell, was attended by leading industry figures from across Europe. It was a fun evening of fine food and wine, and a chance to celebrate some great products, initiatives, companies and individuals from the business supplies industry.
Bi-silque won the Vendor of the Year award in a hotly-contested category that caused plenty of discussion among the judges. With all the facts to hand, however, the best of the best soon became apparent. The reasons for Bi-silque’s success are these: continuously innovative products in a mature category; considerable sales growth in a saturated market; excellent partnerships with the wholesale and reseller communities; great marketing across several media.
Commenting on this year’s
EOPA, Hilleard, who is also the Chairman of the
EOPA judging panel, said: “Once again, the judges were extremely impressed by the quality of the entries we received.”
Beth Wright, Chief Commercial Officer for
Bi-silque commented “We are proud of our team who works hard every day to deliver category growth and innovative visual communication products. We are grateful to our customers and industry partners who selected us for this award”.
