 For the second time, TAMIYA/CARSON was presented with the coveted certificate for overall victory in the category “RC Model Making” by “markt intern” – Europe’s largest industry information service from Düsseldorf.

TAMIYA/CARSON won three gold awards: for outstanding results in the “Field Sales” division, for the commercially crucial discipline “Turnover Speed” and, last but not least, for “Excellent Internet” activities. There were silver awards for the categories “Conditions/Discount Systems”, “Behavior During Market Disturbances” and “Sales Policies/Specialist Retail Concepts”, and bronze for activities in advertising and sales support. Particularly worth mentioning here are the TAMIYA FIGHTER CUP, the world’s largest youth racing series for RC cars with up to 3,000 participants, and the TAMIYA EURO CUP.

Manfred Holl, Managing Director of DICKIE-TAMIYA, was very happy with the overall victory and said: “A big thank you to all those involved who helped us to achieve such a positive result: to our partners, our many loyal customers, our new end consumers, our field staff and, last but not least, the entire DICKIE-TAMIYA team.”
