Centra has named the overall winner at its second annual Pride of Centra Awards as Susan Doherty from Letterkenny in Co. Donegal. Susan was one of 14 shortlisted finalists who were selected for going above and beyond their regular work duties and responsibilities in 2015.
Susan Doherty was selected as winner as a result of all her community-based charity work and excellent service skills - she knows most of her customers by their first name - that she has displayed throughout the year.
The other 13 finalists represented eight additional counties: Cork, Clare, Dublin, Galway, Kilkenny, Sligo, Waterford and Wicklow. These finalists were also recognised for their ongoing commitment to their work through community initiatives, charity organisations, customer service and imaginative in-store ideas.
Commenting on the Pride of Centra Awards, Ian Allen, Centra Sales Director, said, “Last year’s inaugural Pride of Centra Awards were a great success and we are delighted to be hosting them for a second year. I would like to congratulate all those finalists who made the shortlist and in particular Susan, our overall winner. All should be extremely proud of what they do each and every day."
Winner Susan Doherty from Kelly’s Centra Letterkenny commented; “It is such an honour to receive this Pride of Centra Award. I have spent the majority of my life working in retail and the past few years with Kelly’s Centra have been so enjoyable. The store plays such an important role in the community and I am just glad that I can play my part."
