Speaking in South Africa as he received the award, Tuskys CEO Dan Githua dedicated the award to Tuskys staff particularly in the electronics section whose synergy, he said, had led the brand to greater heights.
“This goes to all our staff at Tuskys,” he said. “They remain our greatest strength and pillar. I would also like to thank Samsung for this recognition and for being our great business partner. Thank you for staying ahead in innovation and for timely responding to changing consumer trends, which has led to high level customer satisfaction in our stores.”
Mr Githua said Tuskys will remain committed to deepening partnerships with its stakeholders, including suppliers. “Consumers now see Tuskys as the preferred stockists of high quality electronics brands such as Samsung, and we strive to remain in the forefront in updating new models for our customers when they get released,” Mr said Githua.
