Steven Eagell Group, the Toyota and Lexus retailer, held its first-ever Excellence Awards to recognise and celebrate its colleagues for their outstanding contributions earlier this month.
Employees from the Group’s Head Office and 43 Toyota and Lexus Centres, alongside CEO Steven Eagell came together at Hotel La Tour in the heart of the new city, with the ceremony hosted by actor and comedian Omid Djalili.
Awards were presented to colleagues working across all departments, recognising exceptional performance in areas such as customer satisfaction and sales volume.
The company also introduced the ‘Excellence Recognition Award’ category, celebrating more than 60 employees who play vital behind-the-scenes roles. These often-unsung heroes - including hosts, drivers, administrative staff and colleagues in accounts, marketing and customer support - were honoured for their consistent demonstration of excellence.
Founded in Milton Keynes in 2002, Steven Eagell Group has grown from one small dealership to a multi-award-winning retailer, selling more than 50,000 vehicles and generating over £1 billion in annual turnover.
“Our first-ever Excellence Awards was a fantastic evening of celebration, achievements and great pride in what we have accomplished this year,`' said Group Operations Director, Sheraz Rashid, “The awards didn’t just recognise exceptional performance and results, they celebrated the attitude, passion and positive spirit that make our company so unique.
“We’ve experienced tremendous growth since opening our first dealership, and this success has undoubtedly been driven by the commitment and talent of our people. This occasion was our opportunity to thank our colleagues for everything they do.”
