Fluid Friends Awards: a virtual success
The Fluid team hosted their first ever virtual event on Tuesday 15th September. The event took a slightly different approach due to the COVID-19 pandemic and was hosted virtually via video conferencing. Reverting from their usual dinner, Fluid’s approach was to go virtual. The Fluid team sent out a pack to all attendees ahead of the event so that they could enjoy some nibbles and bubbles as the evening progressed.
Bronte Creary, Fluid’s Supplier Relationship Manager comments “At Fluid we really value our long term supplier partnerships and I’m so delighted that even in these difficult times we could take a moment to reward and say thank you to our supplier friends for all of their hard work”.
Miles Lovegrove Fluid’s Managing Director adds “It was a great evening and thanks to all our supplier friends for investing their personal time in being part of our virtual awards. We are living in very strange times, and it was a shame that we couldn’t be together in person, but we still wanted to show our appreciation and further build our partnerships in a positive way. So, a massive well done to all the winners and thank you for supporting us over the last 12 months, which I am sure will be a year we never forget!”
