FOXTEL AWARDS LOCAL LOGANHOLME BUSINESS WITH $10,000 BUSINESS COACHING PACKAGE

QLD company, Aqua Blue Distribution, named the first Australian business to be awarded the Foxtel Business Grant Award.

10 April 2013 – Foxtel has today announced that local aquarium, aquaculture and reptile supplies wholesale company, Aqua Blue Distribution, will be awarded the inaugural Foxtel Business Grant. The prize consists of tailored business coaching from Switzer Group valued at over $10,000.

Husband and wife team, Tim Jacobson and Robin Brown, started Aqua Blue Distribution in 2002 and have since steadily grown their business year on year. Tim and Robin import quality products from all over the world, and also manufacture in Australia where possible. They proudly represent some of the world’s most innovative and premium brands, and back this up with exceptional customer service.

As the Managing Director of Aqua Blue Distribution, Tim said “This award has come at an ideal time for us – both Robin and I are thrilled to have won. We’re so excited to start the coaching; having a customised, one-on-one session with an expert is absolutely invaluable for a small to medium business like ours”.

Tim said they will use the coaching session to find new ways to actively grow their expanding business in a sustainable way, and to simply gain some insights into more efficient business practices.

Marco Miranda, Sales Director at Foxtel said “Foxtel is delighted to provide Aqua Blue Distribution with the very first Foxtel Business Grant Award. Tim and Robin are very deserving winners and Foxtel is proud to provide them with the opportunity to grow their business and improve their trading practices”.
