The east London company has successfully retained its trophy in this category thanks to a transformation in its customer services strategy prompted by its move, in 2007, from a location that would later become part of the Olympic Park.
This strategy includes regular surveys of customers to gain feedback, the training of employees based on this feedback and performance metrics, and communicating the strategy to both employees and customers. All of this is intended to achieve its objective of becoming a dominant supplier in the premium, auction catalogue market.
So far the strategy seems to be working well, with Park almost trebling its sales in the auction catalogue segment from 2007 to 2011, and one judge described Park's focus on customers as "rampant throughout the company".

AJS labels only just failed to match its 2010 triumph in this category, but the Littlehampton self-adhesive labels supplier was praised by judges for the contribution of its customer services team to the company‘s success. AJS only employs one external sales executive, but its focus on tip-top customer service helped turnover to grow by 15%.
