Abstract
The conference and events sales team at Scotland’s national stadium were crowned ‘Sales team of the Year’ at the Sodexo Prestige annual sales conference.

The venue hosted this year’s Commonwealth games and the team were recognised for their efforts considering the demands put on them as a result of the event.

David Trotter, catering and services director for Stadia and Racecourses in Scotland, said: “Our team at Hampden are absolutely delighted with the outcome of this year’s Sales Conference.

“It has been an incredibly busy year for us at the stadium, with the Commonwealth Games taking up a significant chunk of our time and focus. Yet despite this, we have seen a financial growth of 14% on our sales targets this year and a 26% growth in comparison to 2013, which is fantastic. This is due to our commitment to customer service and quality standards both at our venue and across the portfolio.

“I would like to thank the team at Hampden for all of their efforts and dedication to the venue throughout 2014 and hope that we can continue to move into 2015 with the same success.”

Amanda Brown, national accounts director for Sodexo Prestige, said: “We are thrilled by Hampden’s success at this year’s Sales Conference and for everyone else who received an award.

“Our sales teams at our venues are incredibly important to ensuring the smooth running of the conference and events side of our business, so it is great to see the Hampden team performing so well.

“The planning, delivery and clear-up of the Commonwealth Games took up a huge amount of time, which makes the team’s efforts all the more impressive.”

Sodexo Prestige provides a broad range of catering services and employs over 35,000 people in the UK. Hampden Park is one of Sodexo’s flagship venues.
