Such partnering has worked exceptionally well between Apollo as manufacturer and ADI-Gardiner as distributor for over 25 years, and at the International Fire Expo exhibition Apollo's head of sales Gary Craig presented its 'No1 UK Customer' award to Peter Holmes, business product manager of the fire division at ADI-Gardiner.

"We are delighted to receive this award," says Peter Holmes "We have worked with Apollo for many years and the success of our relationship is down not only to exceptional products but also to the fact that the level of service from Apollo is second to none. It's fantastic to receive recognition for the work that we do and I feel sure that ADI-Gardiner's fire division will continue in successful partnership with Apollo for many years to come"

Apollo will continue to provide localised customer support whatever the location, and is also one of several leading suppliers whose expertise forms part of ADI-Gardiner's fire training programme, helping familiarise installers with established and newer products.

"We have reassessed our corporate image against our achievements, our market position and our future direction. This process has taken several months, but we believe that Apollo is now even better placed to face the future with confidence" says Michelle Agius, sales & marketing director Apollo.
