DKB Household, whose brands include Cole & Mason, Jamie Oliver Ken Hom, Zyliss and Culinare, won the title of Best Display Stand at Home Hardware Southwest's autumn trade show this month.
Tracey Bedborough and Jo Adger, the company's area sales managers for the south west and south east respectively, received the cash prize of £100 and a glass trophy. Fiskars received the runners-up prize of £50.

The show hosted 160 exhibitors and the awards were judged by an independent panel and presented by Home Hardware chairman David Adams.

"As this was our first trade show at Silverstone we were particularly keen for our members and suppliers to really enjoy the event," he said. "I'm delighted so many of our suppliers have embraced the new venue and have taken greater pride in their stands.

"DKB worked extremely hard to create an eye-catching, interactive stand which attracted new and existing customers. Their demonstration of various kitchen tools and gadgets provided additional interest to retailers and their staff."

A draw at the show raised £700, to be split equally between Cancer Research and industry charity The Rainy Day Trust. Home Hardware thanked all members, suppliers and staff for their contributions.
