Webstar wins at The Warehouse Annual Supplier Awards

Commitment to catalogues for retailer giant, The Warehouse, earns Webstar an award.

The New Zealand company took out Non-Trade Supplier of the Year at The Warehouse Annual Supplier Awards held in Auckland last week. Webstar has been responsible for printing millions of catalogues for The Warehouse each year and also works with distribution company, Reach Media, to deliver the catalogues to 1.2 million homes a week.

Bernie Roberts, general manager of Webstar New Zealand, who accepted the award, thanked The Warehouse for placing its trust in the company to print its catalogues.

“Five years ago The Warehouse took a risk in making the switch to a relative new-comer in the catalogue print game,” he said. “We’ve been intent on paying back that vote of confidence ever since.”

According to Stuart Yorston, general manager marketing at The Warehouse, the two share an “open relationship” that has been productive and proactive.

“We’ve been working with Webstar for almost five years and they have been a great partner in that time,” he said. “The product is always delivered in-full on time, which is critical in the short timeframes we work to and the importance of the mailer to our business.”
