We are so proud to be the winners of the 2021 Australian Beauty Industry Awards NSW/ACT State Wholesaler of the Year Award and a finalist for Australian Wholesaler of the Year for the second year running!
Launched in 2011, the Australian Beauty Industry Awards (ABIA) is the most trusted national award platform for the beauty and aesthetic industry. Providing a benchmark of excellence across a wide range of categories within the industry, the ABIA’s recognise the best salons, spas and clinics across the country.
In addition to that, they also celebrate and acknowledge Australian distributors of beauty products, devices and consumables that provide top-tier service for their salon partners. Here at Professional Beauty Solutions, that is exactly what we aim to do. Taking a 360-degree approach, we are our partnered salons, spas and clinics complete solutions - delivering world-class brands, products and devices whilst going above and beyond to ensure our post-purchase support is unparalleled. From education and training, to comprehensive fully-designed marketing strategies and materials - we strive to give our stockists all the tools necessary to become the most successful in the industry.
To be recognised for that is truly something special to the whole team here at PBS and especially to our founders, Matt & Lisa Williams. Thank you to everyone who voted for us and most importantly, a huge thank you to our incredible salon, spa and clinic partners.
ABIA Finalists Announced!
In addition to PBS being announced as State Wholesaler of the Year and finalist for Australian Wholesaler of the Year, all other finalists were announced for each award.
