This year’s FWD Gold Medal shortlists demonstrate the innovation and ambition of Unitas members and their teams, with member companies and individuals in the running for seven of the awards. 

This show of strength builds on last year’s outstanding performance where six of the 13 award categories for wholesalers were won by Unitas members.

Winners of The Federation of Wholesale Distributors’ annual awards for wholesalers are chosen by a panel of independent judges and revealed to 900 guests at the presentation ceremony in London on November 28.
