First week back from Easter and we’re about to end the week on a high with the news that two of our clients’ campaigns have made the finalist grade in two different prestigious awards.

Our BabySafe child-safety campaign, that we created for Tesco and now in it’s 3rd year, has been nominated as a ‘retailer’ finalist in this year’s EMEA Sabre Awards. There were more than 1,200 entries from 28 countries so we’re really proud that the campaign has made the penultimate cut.

And, after entering the Chemist & Druggist Awards on behalf of Tesco Pharmacy, we also found out that the Tesco Cheetham Hill Pharmacy (in Manchester) has been shortlisted – it’s a finalist in the Green Award category. Opened in January 2009, the Cheetham Hill store is Tesco’s first new, low carbon footprint store.  What’s more, two of the other entries we pulled together, for Pharmacy Manager of the Year and MUR Champion of the Year, will have their achievements acknowledged with a Certificate of Merit.

Congrats to all involved and especially to Tesco for its double whammy nominations!  Fingers crossed for 21 May (when Sabre winners announced) and 17 June (when C&D winner announced).
