Maxol Mace in Sandyford nominated for top award

Best Delicatessen in Ireland for Hygiene and Food Safety. That’s the title that Maxol Mace Sandyford in Dublin could be laying claim to on September 26th 2014, having been announced as one of the finalists at the 2014 National Q Mark Awards.

Announcing the list of finalists, Ms. Irene Collins, the Managing Director of Excellence Ireland Quality Association, announced that the team from Maxol Mace Sandyford have surpassed the National standards of Hygiene and Food Safety and have set a new benchmark that all other delicatessens should be aiming for.

She went on to say that, “The nomination for Best Delicatessen in Ireland for Hygiene and Food Safety recognises that Maxol Mace Sandyford is operating at the highest standard of Hygiene and Food Safety in the country”.

In the face of increasingly competitive markets and mounting pressure on companies to produce goods and services at low cost, many of us now have concerns about who is protecting us when it comes to quality testing and best practice. This is why it is so reassuring to know that EIQA – The Guardians of The Q Mark, are still rigorously auditing all types of businesses and will only award the coveted Q Mark to those that operate at standards far above the current legislative requirements and conduct their affairs with the consumer’s best interests in mind.

Maxol Mace Sandyford is one part of a family operated business which has been serving the local community since 2001. This family owns three stores and employs a dedicated and customer focused team of thirty two people, fourteen of which work in Maxol Mace Sandyford. This particular store and forecourt opened in December 2012 and has been providing premium level service ever since. The company is dedicated to providing the freshest of foods to its customers ensuring hygiene and food safety is kept top of mind at all times.

On hearing that they had been nominated for this prestigious award, Ronan Kennedy, Supervisor at Maxol Mace Sandyford, said “This nomination means that we are doing our jobs both efficiently and to a very high standard. The recognition that this nomination provides has given me a lot of personal satisfaction”.

This year’s glamorous, star-studded awards ceremony will take place in the stunning ballroom of the Double Tree by Hilton Hotel when the team from Maxol Mace Sandyford in Dublin will go head to head with the best Irish businesses of 2014 to compete for what are known as ‘The Oscars of Business Excellence’.
