Pharmacist and owner of Blooms The Chemist at Saratoga, Kurt Smith, and his team have achieved the proud honour of being named Store of the Year among the 112 chemists Australia-wide in the group.
The store also took out the group’s Productivity Store of the Year award at the Blooms The Chemist Partners’ Conference on July 20.
It was strong brand engagement combined with an increase in gross margin return on floor space, as well as impressive customer service, which stood out for the Saratoga store.
“I am super proud of my team who contribute every day to ensure we provide meaningful customer service and care to our customers and community,” said owner Kurt Smith.
“The past 12 months have been tough for everyone but our team never wavered and always put their best foot forward every day.
“It’s also important to acknowledge our local community who trust us in supporting them through their health journey,” Smith said.
Blooms CEO, Emmanuel Vavoulas, said the organisation was focussed on the successful growth of the brand’s internal culture and alignment to the company’s core purpose and strategic objectives.
“Each and every one of our stores positively contribute to Australia’s healthcare system and the conference and awards provide a moment in our busy schedules to celebrate those who have been exceptional across a range of criteria,” he said.
