Arco has been awarded the prestigious Investor in Sales Award from the Institute of Sales Professionals (ISP), recognising the commitment the company has made to ensuring its sales staff provide a professional and ethical service to its customers.
The award and Arco’s investment in training and development of its sales colleagues, ensures that the business trades ethically in what and how it sells its products and services.
Arco sales teams also gain safety credentials through the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health, meaning they can support customers with expert knowledge and advice, making Arco the responsible choice of safety partner.
To achieve the team award, individual salespeople were required to pass a demanding exam in order to be registered on the ISP’s professional register, those on the register are required to pass a new exam after two years in order to retain their accreditation. Arco has also signed up to become a corporate member of the ISP.
Bryan Lawrie, Commercial Director at Arco, says: “Receiving this award is a fantastic achievement for Arco and is fitting recognition of the business’ efforts in developing a highly skilled sales team that is committed to providing the best possible experience for our customers, lives up to our ethos of being experts in safety and makes us the responsible choice of safety partner.”
Patrick Joiner, Managing Director of the Institute of Sales Professionals, concludes: “Congratulations to the hardworking and dedicated salespeople at Arco for achieving their first Investor in Sales award. Their commitment to professional development and ethical business behaviour sends a strong message to their customers that they are credible, trustworthy business partners. The Institute of Sales Professionals is delighted to be working with Arco to help them foster talented, dependable salespeople and we wish them every success.”
