After an unprecedented number of entries and an extended judging process, the finalists for the eCommerce Awards for Excellence in association with Chase Paymentech have been announced. 
Finalists include household names from the retail sector with House of Fraser, John Lewis, Toys ‘R’ Us, New Look, ASOS, Fortnum and Mason, Superdrug and Laura Ashley all represented.
“We are delighted with the quality and quantity of entries received for this year’s Awards.” said Rebecca Slater, Group Event Manager.
“Once again we’ve seen a real surge of entries within the customer service, design and marketing categories which is representative of the talent and innovation these sectors are currently enjoying. It has also been fantastic to see such strong submissions in the new categories introduced for 2015 covering financial services, design, b2b and agency talent. All of the finalists should be incredibly proud, the field is stronger than I’ve seen in years and I very
much look forward to seeing the winners announced at the end of September.”
The winners will be announced in front of more than 500 ecommerce professionals on September 30th at Park Plaza Riverbank London with two special celebrity hosts who will be unveiled in the coming weeks. Taking place
on the evening of the first day of eCommerce Expo, the Awards will also see the presentation of the Best Product at eCommerce Expo which will be judged during the show earlier in the day.
Chase Paymentech is the global merchant acquiring business of JPMorgan Chase & Co.
