Supplier of the year

Renolit has scooped the top accolade in The Veka UK Group’s second annual Supplier of the Year awards.

The Veka UK Group is proud to celebrate suppliers that go above and beyond in providing the materials needed for Veka and Halo’s PVCU profile systems.

Other category winners included: Chick Plastics for Ancillaries; and EWS (Manufacturing) for Technical In-House Design.

Renolit won best Manufacturing Consumables, as well as being named Supplier of the Year. The company provides the high spec foils that make up The Veka UK Group’s Variations colour collection.

Renolit’s CEO Dave Hall said: “We have a long-standing trading relationship with the group of over 20 years. In this time, Veka has grown and developed its business model significantly. This has naturally led to higher expectations in terms of service, quality and innovative products. Veka’s collaborative and professional approach has allowed our business to develop, adapt and grow with them. For this reason in particular, we are proud to receive the award.”

Purchasing manager for The Veka UK Group Nicola Woods said: “At the end of every month, our key suppliers are provided with a vendor rating report, which outlines how we have judged their performance. They are graded on quantitative data such as number of non-conformances and on time in full (Otif) deliveries, but also on qualitative data such as customer service, flexibility and timely responses to queries.

“This means we can keep a close eye on the supply chain to make sure no problems arise, allowing us to continue providing the best possible customer experience. Suppliers must achieve or exceed a benchmark score each month – without fail – in order to remain on our approved suppliers list. This data also enables us to offer well-deserved praise where it’s due. These awards help us to acknowledge the hard work of our top suppliers.”
