Here at Hannells Estate Agents, we’re delighted to announce that for the second consecutive year, we’ve been announced as finalists in the hotly contested Derby Telegraph Business Awards 2015…

The last twelve months have been an incredibly busy time for the whole team here at Hannells as we’ve been working hard on improving our offering to Derby movers, enhancing our reputation and gaining a huge market leading share of the total sold boards in Derby. It comes as no surprise to the independent, family run firm that they have once again been shortlisted as one of the finalists in the highly esteemed Derby Telegraph Business Awards 2015.

Managing Director, Benjamin Brain, said “We’re delighted to once again be a part of this fantastic celebration of the best that Derby has to offer. Since we walked away as runners up last year, which we were absolutely delighted with considering the competition we were up against, we have been working hard to improve the service we offer across the board – from our customer journey right down to how the brand looks and since the last awards, we have seen a complete transformation in the business which has seen our market share grow and grow. The fact that we are the only Estate Agency to be shortlisted in the awards is a testament to the hard work we’ve all put in over the last 12 months and everybody here has their fingers crossed for the awards ceremony set to take place on June 24th at the Roundhouse.”

Since the awards last year, the team at Derby’s top selling estate agency have seen some huge changes. From a huge rebranding exercise which has brought the look of the firm bang up to date and the introduction of their SELECT offering, to the opening of our brilliant Lettings division which has brought some much needed competition to the Derby rental market. In fact, it was the result of a chance meeting with Derby marketing firm WDA Marketing at last year’s awards which saw the firm deciding to embark on updating the look of the business and we’ve been incredibly pleased with the end result.

The Agency’s Business Development Manager, Victoria Downing, said “We’re involved in a very competitive market that is not only constantly having to adapt to changing market conditions, but also doesn’t have a great reputation. It’s refreshing to be part of a company that is working hard to change the misconceptions people have of Estate Agents and genuinely values each and every one of their customers. The recent independent results that show us accounting for 36.9% of the total sold boards in Derby already had us on a high so to be nominated as one of the best businesses in Derby is the cherry on top of the cake!”.

Hannells will be joined at the awards ceremony in June by some of the crème de la crème of Derby business including Morley Hayes, Huub, Pennine Healthcare, Anoki and Surescreen.
