Top Quality Award

The Five Star Award was awarded to Samuel Johnston Ltd on the 27th January 1999:

The Newtownabbey Times covered the award ceremony and published the following article shortly after:

SAMUEL Johnstons, the well known name in nursery, family run business has been awarded the Belfast "5 Star" quality mark in recognition of a consistently high standard of customer care. The business which has branches in Newtownabbey and Belfast, also came second out of the overall 48 retail outlets - ahead of some top high street names. The awards were presented at the City Hall by Sir Reg Empey, Chairman of Belfast City Council's Economic Development Committee.

Samuel Johnstons believes in customer care and service. Simon McCullough, Manager, says: "We are proud to be able to advise mothers on the best possible buy that suits them and their baby, whether it be a pram for a newborn or a buggy for a toddler, because we support customer care and service one hundred percent." Samuel Johnstons is recognised all over Northern Ireland as a family run company that offers the best in nursery products for mums-to-be.

This was an independently written article by the Newtownabbey Times Newspaper, printed shortly after the award ceremony in City Hall. It is always pleasant to see our hard work paying off with a review such as this.
