Toyota wins award

Toyota Material Handling Europe has been named Supplier of the Year for 2009 by SPAR International, the global retail network.

The award was announced at SPAR International's annual Suppliers' Roundtable held in Amsterdam on 19 November 2009.

Toyota was awarded one of only two accolades, taking the category of non-saleable products.

"The service level that SPAR International has enjoyed from Toyota Material Handling Europe played a major role in this year's award," says Gordon Campbell, managing director of SPAR International. "Toyota won because it has increased its business with SPAR steadily over the past couple of years and topped it with this year's super performance," he continued.
