PL Buyer
2008 Retail Executives Of the Year
Nomination Ballot

We thank you for your participation in our 2008 Category Colonel Awards.

For the last eight years, PL Buyer’s Category Colonel Awards program has provided a way to recognize private label industry suppliers who are the very best at what they do.

By nominating those private label manufacturers who you believe to be “best in class” as trading partners, you will give a deserved pat on the back to people who put in extra effort in making their customers’ private label programs a huge success.

All responses are 100% confidential!
The deadline for nominations is May 16.

Category Colonel Award Criteria:

• Overall commitment to private label product quality
• Knowledge of the retailer’s business
• Superior skills in helping their customers drive store brand volume, profits, and competitive differentiation

The results of this year’s voting will be featured within the July issue of PL Buyer.
