CENTURY DRILL BRINGS HOME SILVER AWARD- May 4, 2010

The North American Retail Hardware Association (NRHA) is proud to announce the results of the first-ever NRHA Packaging and Merchandising Awards program. 

More than 115 manufacturers throughout the United States and Canada submitted their best packaging and merchandising/point-of-purchase display materials in hopes of receiving recognition as the best in the industry.  To determine the winners, NRHA invited seven expert judges to contribute their experience and knowledge to the program.  After convening in Indianapolis to review and critique each entry thoroughly, judges’ scores were tallied and the winners were chosen.

The top entry in both the packaging and merchandising categories that exemplified the highest standards of excellence and received the highest scores from the judges were given the Whole Package Awards.  The Environmental Packaging-of-the-Year Award was also given to the packaging entry that displayed the greatest advancements in green initiatives such as sustainability and waste elimination.  Additionally, entries that received the highest scores and demonstrated a superior level of packaging or merchandising excellence in the program were named Gold Award Winners. Silver Award Winners are those entries that demonstrated above average packaging and merchandising efforts.
