Which retailers are recognised by Belgian consumers? Every year, thousands of consumers have their say in the ‘Mollie Retailer of the Year Belgium’ awards. They rate their favourite retail chains and online shops on aspects such as price, product range, service and ease of purchase. Based on these ratings, the winners in various categories are presented with an award. The category winners then stand a chance of winning the coveted overall titles. At RetailDetail Night, we’ll announce which retailers will receive the overall awards. Who will be crowned ‘Mollie Best Retail Chain in Belgium’, ‘Mollie Webshop Awards Belgium’ or ‘Mollie Retailer of the Year Belgium’ this year? A wonderful accolade from Belgian consumers!

The CEO recently brought his story together in the book “Zonder Filter” (Lannoo Campus).
