Three Mayo MACE stores awarded for retail excellence

THREE Mayo-based MACE stores were honoured at the MACE Excellence Awards for achieving exceptional standards in retailing.

The award winners were Dermot Fallon, Fallon’s MACE, Ballinrobe, and Padraic Delaney, Delaney’s MACE, Castlebar, and Delaney’s MACE, Charlestown.

Awards are only awarded to MACE stores that pass an intensive year-long inspection, including two unannounced audits in addition to an SMA audit, as well as a BWG foods safety audit in conjunction with the globally recognised assurance partner, LRQA.

Congratulating the winners, Keith Crawford, MACE sales director, said: “As Ireland’s longest serving convenience symbol brand, MACE retailers have a well-established commitment to outstanding retail standards and customer service. The recipients of this year’s MACE Excellence Awards continue to set the benchmark for the brand and marketplace overall.

“Congratulations to Padraic Delaney and Dermot Fallon and their teams for all they do in their local communities.”
