QUOTE:

I was surprised and honoured to have been nominated for the prestigious Ruben Fried Retailer of the Year for 2024.  I have been with Spotlight almost 7 years and love working for this company every year where we are striving to better ourselves and where we all go along for the ride on chaos and challenges that come up daily.

Working by the Golden Rules is always something myself and my team strive to do each and every day, no day is the same and I love that.  I try to give whatever I am doing 100% with passion and commitment.

I felt extremely proud to be representing New Zealand and being amongst a long list of previous nominees and the winners.

You bring the passion,
we provide the career.
