BPMA Chartered Distributor status

London-based supplier of branded promotional merchandise and corporate clothing, Outstanding Branding, has been awarded Distributor Charter status by the board of Directors at the BPMA - British Promotional Merchandise Association.

Being awarded the Distributor Charter status means that Outstanding Branding subscribe to the highest standard of business ethics and practice set out by the Charter code.

The BPMA Charter status, along with the recent ISO certification, underlines Outstanding Branding’s desire to meet the highest standards possible and make them stand out from the competition.

"We are thrilled to be awarded Charter status by the BPMA board.  We work hard on maintaining high standards for our clients and are now proud to boast the charter status” said Sarah Penn, Managing Director at Outstanding Branding.

"Our clients now know that, when making a decision on who to supply their promotional merchandise, in choosing Outstanding Branding they get a distributor they can trust, work in partnership with and who have high standards in business ethics and supply chain."

The BPMA Charter was launched to enable end user customers to be able to make an informed choice on a quality, recognised distributor who have processes in place for customer service, supply chain, ethical  & environmental issues; who are financially secure; and who can offer continuity of product and service

"It’s a great achievement to gain the Charter status and I want to thank the whole team at Outstanding Branding - we can now truly call ourselves Outstanding", commented Sarah Penn
