South Africa wins Distributor of the Year from US giant
Gary Scarafile, the regional sales director of the US$12 billion Nebraska-based conglomerate ConAgra, flew into Cape Town, on Tuesday 25 August 2009, to present the award of Distributor of the Year for Europe, Middle East and Africa to JMC.
JMC, which represents some of the world's pre-eminent food and drinks brands in South Africa, including Lindt, Evian, Mentos, Katjes and Red Bull, was one of only two awards presented globally. According to Scarafile, distributors in more than 140 markets were evaluated according to volume and growth.
Angelo Carambassis, JMC commercial director, says the company is honoured to receive the global award especially in the light of unusually difficult trading conditions. “Winning this award for our performance is testimony to all the hard work the team has put in, and we are particularly pleased.”
