BEST INDUSTRIAL FOOTWEAR COMPANY 2020

Written by Charlie Turner | 18/09/20 10:32

The Southern Enterprise Awards recently named V12 Footwear as 2020's ‘Best Industrial Footwear Company’. This would not be possible without our loyal customer base and we are humbled and thankful for every one.  Reflecting on a hugely turbulent year for many people and many businesses, not just in the UK but the whole world, we are very proud to be recognised for our continuing growth and speed of adaption to changing markets.

As well as being extremely honoured by this recognition this award highlights our recent joint venture and brand launch of self protection products. Through the past few months we have found it very hard to sit back and do nothing to help. With over 20 years in the safety footwear industry and a portfolio of cutting edge products and award winning innovations, We have teamed up with Toffeln, a long established company who have dedicated their lives to enhancing foot well-being and helping healthcare professionals to enjoy healthier, supremely well supported feet.  Read more about our joint venture HERE 

As many companies will have found over the past few months, and still ongoing, many of the traditional methods of business are changing and have changed. With limited opportunity for face-to-face selling, exhibitions and meetings we have looked at our customer contact points to ensure we can still give the support and have the contact our customers need. Below are a few examples of what we have done so far but we are always looking for new and betters ways so please get in contact if you have any ideas:- 

  1. VIDEO CONFERENCING - Click on the title to view our blog where we cover off the key benefits of video conferencing as well as a review of (in our opinion) the top three video solutions currently available.
  2. REMOTE FOOTWEAR AUDIT - Our industry leading audit and trial process historically has been dependant on a physical site visit. For the first time we are giving access to our system to enable companies to complete their own site audit and still get the best footwear knowledge and recommendations from our team. 
  3. ONLINE BROCHURE - There is still nothing quite like a newly printed physical brochure to showcase the great boots we sell. However we have now created a digital version where you can even turn the page! Easy to share and no time or cost of postage means you can get the brochure in front of customers in a click. 

"Once again we would like to express our thanks to all our loyal resellers and boot wearers. We want you to know that we will be here to offer our support to help you protect yourself and your workforce throughout this period, however long it may be".  Andy Turner | Managing Director
