The winners of the 11th edition of PRCH Retail Awards!

The contest by the Polish Council of Shopping Centres – PRCH Retail Awards, was created for retailers, developers, managers, investors and retail marketing specialists. For the past eleven years, a jury of industry experts has been continuously pointing out the best industry projects. This year, the winners of gold and silver statuettes have also been selected to appreciate the best and most effective industry activities. The competition prizes were awarded during the online broadcast. The event was watched live by over 500 people. The gala was hosted by Kamila Kalińczak and Daniel Michałowski, well known for their radio and television appearances.

During the evaluation of applications submitted to this year’s edition of the contest, the jury emphasized the effectiveness and innovation of the project, the meticulous filling of the application itself, and matching the projects to the needs of the local community. All winning projects can be found on www.retailawards.org.pl. This year’s contest partners were: EPP (golden partners), TOP-KEY (partner in the Retail Scheme’s Redevelopment / Extension / Modernisation of the Year category) and Transaction Connect (partner in the Shopping Centre of the Year – Best Performance category). 

“Despite the economic and social challenges for the entire retail sector, we have received a large number of applications, which has made us very proud. It is clear that the industry wants to share its best practices, looking for feedback from other members of the Polish Council of Shopping Centres and industry experts,” said Radosław Knap, Director General, Member of the Board, PRCH.
