⏪ BLUE BLOOD REWIND | A Night to Remember! 🏆
This week's rewind takes us back to a very proud moment in Blue Blood's history when we were shortlisted for the Retail Award at the Oxfordshire Business Awards (OXBAs)! 💙
Pictured here are Dale, Brioney, Ben and Richard, enjoying a fantastic evening celebrating some of Oxfordshire's finest businesses.
Although we were just pipped to the post on the night, getting that far was a huge achievement for us and something we were incredibly proud of.
Looking back, this event was a real eye-opener. It made us realise the impact Blue Blood was starting to have across Oxfordshire. New business connections were made, our name was getting out there, and word was spreading about the quality of our products and the service we were providing.
And a special mention for the gentleman on the right of Ben, none other than local legend Richard Bowerman! 🎾
During our retail shop days, Rich ran his hugely successful racket restringing business from the Blue Blood premises. He's still going strong today, restringing from Broad Canvas, the art shop on Broad Street in Oxford!
It's moments like these that remind us just how far we've come, the people we've met along the way and how important our local business community has been to our journey.
We didn't take home the trophy that night, but we certainly came away with something just as valuable! 💙
