ActSmart's Partner of the Year

Posted on in Business News , Cycles News , Outdoor News

To recognise the achievements of our service provider partnerships, the ActSmart Partner of the Year awards initiative was introduced in 2010.

ActSmart is heavily dependent upon partnerships to help deliver key cost saving, sales boosting and support services to our subscribers. The range of 25+ services available makes the ActSmart subscription package the most valuable tool for your retail business. From cost savings on business insurance and card processing, to unlimited access to legal advice, the range of services available offers businesses the support they need, all in one place.

This year, the Partner of the Year has been awarded to Butterworth Spengler.

Butterworth Spengler has been the UK's leading cycle and outdoors shop insurance brokers since 1989. They offer a distinctive blend of experience, knowledge and high levels of customer service which means you can trust them to deliver bespoke insurance cover for your business needs - whilst maintaining competitive prices.

Peter Gee from Butterworth Spengler commented "Butterworth Spengler Facilities are delighted to have been announced as ActSmart's Partner of the Year for 2015.

"As the UK's leading independent insurance broker for the cycling industry it gives us great pleasure to continue to provide our customers with products and service standards of the highest quality in partnership with ActSmart."

ActSmart are always looking to expand the service offering to suit all of our subscribers. With a growing number of outdoor retailers, ActSmart and Butterworth Spengler have now introduced a brand new policy designed with outdoor retail in mind, whilst still ensuring cycle businesses continue to benefit from our unrivalled specialist cycles policy.

Peter Gee continued: "For nearly 20 years we have offered a market leading cycle retailer insurance policy that protects independent businesses and we will continue to grow our retailer insurance offering in 2016 with the launch of our Outdoor scheme.

"We are extremely proud to have won this award once again, and we look forward to continued success in partnership with ActSmart in 2016".

Chris Hall, Head of Business Development at ActSmart explains why Butterworth Spengler were selected from the many partners we currently work with. "Butterworth Spengler are worthy winners of this year's award, with a dedicated team continuing to ensure every customer receives the highest level of service and has the right policy in place to protect their business in the event of a claim.

After many years of delivering a specialist policy for our bicycle businesses, Butterworth Spengler's commitment to expand their offering into the outdoor pursuits sector further supports our decision to award them this year's Partner of the Year award."
