What the trade say...

"To say we are over the moon would be a massive understatement. IWC awards are the gold standard of our industry and winning the IWC Specialist Merchant of the Year for Portugal and High Street Chain of the Year means a lot. We have achieved this as a result of the hard work of my fellow colleagues at Oddbins, the loyalty of our customers and the unwavering support of our shareholders. On their behalf we would like to thank the IWC for recognising our long, hard battle to get Oddbins to where it is today: thank you!”
