Account Assistant Alison Gilchrist, who is based in Peter Vardy’s Vauxhall Motherwell dealership, was recognised for her ideas in the company’s War on Waste campaign with the Partner Award.
She said: “To be recognised for my work in reducing waste and inefficiencies was a fantastic honour, and it was a wonderful night for everyone involved.”
The group’s chief executive, Peter Vardy, said: “It is important to take time to reflect on our successes as a group, and to raise money for Fields of Life, a very deserving charity.
“The ball was a roaring success, and carries on the Vardy tradition of giving back wherever we can.”
The awards event and anniversary celebration kicked-off with a traditional bagpiper and guests enjoyed entertainments from a jazz band and magicians.
Peter Vardy and Sir Peter Vardy usedc the event to address guests about the group’s recent successes and how far the company has come since its first day in Vauxhall Perth 10 years ago.
