CLITHEROE-based digital retailer and installer, Dugdales Digital, was named regional retailer of the year at the Annual Sky Independent Awards 2008.

Up against three other shortlisted nominees for the north of England and Northern Ireland, Dugdales Digital, Chatburn Road, received the award at an event held at Celtic Manor Resort, South Wales.

Dugdales previously won the award in 2006 and is the only retailer in the region to have scooped the award twice.

Owner David Dugdale said: “I feel privileged to have won this award as my sales figures beat those of big retailers in the big cities such as Manchester, Liverpool, Londonderry and Belfast.”
