‘Large Independent Merchant of the Year’ – L&S ‘Highly Commended’

by Charles Lea

L&S was Highly Commended in the national awards for best ‘Large Independent Merchant of the Year’

We are delighted also to have won this impressive chunk of metal, for being Highly Commended in the national awards for best ‘Large Independent Merchant of the Year’.

Awards dinner495It has to be said that there is a bit of curious category confusion here, as the winner of the ‘Large’ category is a company a good ten times our size, while the winner of the ‘Small Independent Merchant of the Year’ employs more people than L&S, (but has only one retail outlet). ‘Large’ apparently starts at anything over three shops.

We are very happy to be Highly Commended in the more grown-up category, as we feel that it shows we are punching well above our weight.

    Congratulations! I LOVE my local (Kens Church St) L&S shop: Great half-bottles; great St Felix rose; great service, nice floor, and love the red tissue too!
