Innotech has crowned Gus from Big Art and Banner as this year’s winner of the Pets in Print competition.
He faced rough competition from a diverse field of entrants that included a bearded dragon and sheep.
Gus proved to be small but mighty in his role as production assistant, getting involved in a range of activities, from monitoring artwork to forklift supervision; all while proudly sporting his Pets in Print bandana. The judges particularly noted his dexterity and versatility at work while still posing beautifully.
On the panel were Gail Coles from The Dogs Trust, Carys Evans from Karis Copp Media, Colin Sinclair McDermott, the Online Print Coach, and Jack Gocher and Kathryn Ridout from Eye on Display.
Mr Gocher, said about the winner’s entry: “It was Gus’s work ethic that really earned him first prize. His steely determination as he moved from task to task demonstrated his commitment to the business. It looks as though the company couldn’t do without him.”
As always, it was very difficult for the judges to choose from such strong contenders and they wanted to recognise some of the other notable entrants.
The Adorable Duo Award went to Annie and Pippa from Signspeed and the Long Service Award went to 12-year-old Maisie from Synk Creative.
Oz from Imagink gained the Commercial Acumen Award for his excellent presentation of Q1 Treat Allocation.
Good Service Award went to Jenny from Nuneaton Signs who assists Sales Team member, Beth, who is registered blind.
Sam Lowe, marketing manager for Innotech, added: “Thank you to everyone who shared their pictures for this year’s Pets in Print competition. As always, the judges have chosen a worthy winner, who joins Juno from Type Creative and Garry from Print.com in our list of Champions.”
This year the competition supported the work of The Dogs Trust with a donation of £2 for every online order over £150 during March, raising a total of £500.
