The SRA Awards

ABOUT THE SRA AWARDS:

The SRA Awards are presented by the Singapore Retailers Association and supported by SPRING Singapore and the Singapore Tourism Board.

Launched in 2000, the coveted Awards aim to raise the standards, profile and image of the retail industry in Singapore.

Presented annually to the most outstanding industry players, the SRA Awards seek to promote innovation, creativity and excellence, so as to constantly add new and exciting dimensions to retail and take the industry to new heights.

From 2009, a total of six Awards will be up for grabs each year:
1. Best New Entrant of the Year
2. Best Retail Concept of the Year
3. Best Retail Event of the Year
4. Green Retailer of the Year
5. Retail Manager of the Year*
6. Young Retail Executive of the Year*

The 'Best New Entrant of the Year' and 'Best Retail Concept of the Year' are open to all brick-and-mortar retail establishments in Singapore, while the 'Best Retail Event of the Year' is open to shopping centres as well. All contenders are judged on the level of creativity, uniqueness, excitement, success, and impact on consumers and the retail industry in Singapore.

The 'Green Retailer of the Year' is open to all retail companies which are operating brick-and-mortar stores in Singapore. The contenders are judged on the impressiveness and success of the green efforts, and the impact on the retail industry in Singapore.

The 'Retail Manager of the Year' and the 'Young Retail Executive of the Year' are open to all Singaporean and Permanent Resident retail executives who are employed by companies that are SRA members. While the former recognises outstanding executives aged between 31 and 45 who are managing at least two levels of staff, the latter recognises young and dynamic retail executives aged 30 or below who are managing three subordinates or more. The contenders are judged on their qualities, abilities, contributions and achievements to the company and the industry.

All winners of the annual SRA Awards will receive a trophy each. In addition, the winners of the Retail Manager of the Year and Young Retail Executive of the Year will also receive a $4,000 Educational Reward each, while the finalists will receive a $500 Educational Reward each from the SRA as part of the SRA Membership Rewards Programme**.

* All the Awards are open to both SRA members and non-members, except for the Retail Manager of the Year and Young Retail Executive of the Year, which are open to employees of SRA member companies only.

** The SRA Membership Rewards are exclusively for SRA members which have been with the Association for at least 2 years, and whose membership fees are not in arrears.
