Zip Water shortlisted for two Norfolk Business Awards

We are absolutely thrilled to be selected as a finalist for both the Tech Innovator and Customer Care categories in the 2020 Norfolk Business Awards. 

Millions of people use Zip Water systems – both drinking and hot water – in homes, workplaces, hospitals, schools and industrial buildings worldwide. Our brand is well known for providing the highest quality products and services to all of our customers. 

Adapting to rapid change

When the COVID-19 pandemic impacted, like many, we had to adapt quickly and efficiently to ensure that we were there for our customers and each other. We worked hard to stay open throughout lockdown to ensure we were there to guide and support our customers with enhanced communication, guidance, support and the development of new products and service propositions. 

Customer care was our number one priority and it is wonderful to have this effort recognised by our local business community. 

 

Industry leading innovators

On top of this, as market leaders, it’s our mission to always offer our customers the very latest technology and cutting-edge innovation. 

Our brand-new HydroTap Touch Free Wave provides a 100% touch free solution for the delivery of boiling chilled and sparkling water. This innovative new HydroTap has come to fruition in a record six months of development; something that would usually take between three years before being launched to market.

With an increased consideration around hygiene in the workplace in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have, and continue to be, determined to be part of the solution in helping bring employees back to work safely.

Proud Norfolk-based business and employer

Operating from our Dereham base since 1991, we’ve grown to a team of over 250 employees who are dedicated to providing our customers with world class products and services through our culture of continuous improvement. 

Our Managing Director, Tracey Bamber, enthused, “We have an incredible team and these award nominations are a testament to every one of them - from customer experience and sales to the Hydrocare service and maintenance teams - for consistently delivering a quality customer experience. It’s recognition of their hard work, dedication and support throughout the COVID-19 pandemic where our considered and thoughtful approach helped to make our customers feel particularly at ease during such a tough time.”

The business awards 

Celebrating its 30th year, the Eastern Daily Press’ Norfolk Business Awards recognise the strength of our local business community - particularly important this year amidst challenging times for many businesses.

The Eastern Daily Press’ Business Editor, Richard Porritt, commented, “At the start of the year no-one could have predicted the impact the virus would have on business. But equally no-one would have predicted some of the incredible ways our business community rose to the challenge...Of course we are not yet out of the woods. The challenges of this pandemic will continue for the foreseeable. But these awards are the perfect opportunity to celebrate the ways in which your business has survived and thrived.”

The award winners will be announced on November 24th on the Eastern Daily Press’ social channels and web platform. 

We understand the pandemic is far from over and continue to keep our customers and partners informed with our latest updates HERE.

We want to take this opportunity to thank all of our customers and business network for the support you have offered us in return this year. We look forward to working with you in a bigger, brighter 2021.
