One of the most popular categories of the Awards in terms of numbers of entries, Website of the Year recognises the overall effectiveness, user-friendliness and impact of a company’s online communication.
Epicor Software sales director Andrew Wilkinson said the sponsorship was a good fit with its business.
"As a supplier of software to so many companies operating in the timber industry, we’re proud to be sponsoring this category of the Awards," he said. "Today the industry is modern and forward looking and IT impacts on every aspect of a business – trading, stock control, manufacturing and logistics – as well as providing the management team with sound business intelligence that helps them make the right decisions for the future. It’s fitting therefore that our category is Website of the Year and we’re looking forward to it showcasing some of the most creative and effective uses of the internet.
"The TTJ Awards also celebrate everything that is good about the industry – business success, outstanding customer service, product innovation and inspirational marketing, and the ceremony is an enjoyable opportunity to share that celebration with customers and friends. We’re looking forward to being part of it."
TTJ editor Mike Jeffree welcomed Epicor’s decision to become a sponsor.
"It is exciting for the Awards to have such a big name from the software sector on board with such a well-known product brand in the merchanting sector," he said. "Given their expertise, it will also be great to have their input in the category judging."
The TTJ Awards take place on September 25 at The Landmark, London.
