CMP Products walks away with two awards at the EDA Awards

CMP Products is celebrating after winning two major awards at the Electrical Distributors Association’s (EDA) Data Awards.

The Cramlington-based business received the Overall Data Quality award for 2,000 stock-keeping units (SKUs), while the other was a Gold Standard Data Quality award. Both were for its work within the EDA’s E-DATA Pool – an initiative established to allow manufacturers to share their product data with wholesalers and specifiers throughout the UK.

The EDA is a trade association for electrical wholesale distributors in the UK and has a membership of over 250, which represents over 75% of the market. Its E-DATA Pool has over 220,000 SKUs live for wholesaler members to access, 25,000 of which are CMP products.

Jade Appleby, CMP’s Marketing Manager, says, “We’ve put a lot of hard work into delivering top-quality product data for our customers and we were all delighted to be recognised for this by the EDA.

“Looking forward, we have exciting plans for the next phases of our digital data journey during 2024, including improvements to our website and the finalisation of our new product information management software.”

The fifth Annual Digitalisation and Data Awards were held at the America Square Conference Centre in London. Over 200 delegates and EDA representatives attended the event, which also included presentations and discussions on developments in digitalisation and AI.
