Awards

Thanks so much for making us feel like winners!

We are thrilled and honoured to have been the recipients of various awards.

Most recently we were named 'Canadian Retailer of the Year' by the Canadian Gift Association. This is a huge achievement for us, and the result of years of teamwork, working toward our common dream. We could not have achieved this without the loyalty of our incredible customers, the creativity of our featured artists, and of course the wit and wonder of our awesome staff. We are filled with gratitude.

We were also named Tourism Business of the Year at the 2014 HOTie awards, and accepted a beautiful plaque from Hastings County, as well as a certificate from our MPP acknowledging our achievements. You can read more about the award in our blog, or check out the Visit Hastings site here.

Earlier this year we were also honoured to be recognized as one of the County's 50 'Hot Spots.' We are so grateful for everyone who voted for us, and for all the support!

A few years ago were were also awarded the national RETAILER OF DISTINCTION award from the Canadian Gift and Tableware Association. At the 2008 Spring Trade Show we received a trophy and a framed award to display at the shop. Dagny and Janis were asked to speak to a group of Suppliers in Toronto, and also in Vancouver.

These awards mean so much to us. Thanks to everyone who has nominated us, voted for us, and shown their loyalty and support for THE OLD TIN SHED!
