Gloria Jean’s coffee franchises recognised at Excellence in Franchising Awards

The Franchise Council of Australia has recognised the achievements of Gloria Jean's coffee franchises over the last year at their annual Excellence in Franchising Awards Gala dinner, held recently at the Marriot Hotel in Surfers Paradise.

In recognition of the ‘Australia’s Got Talent’ marketing campaign undertaken across the network of coffee franchises, Immersed Marketing was awarded with the Excellence in Marketing Award, beating 15 other nominees in the highly competitive category.

Gloria Jean’s was also awarded a merit for the 2010 International Franchising Award for the company’s contribution to global franchising.

In addition, Gymea franchisees Chris and John Giovas took home the runner up award for Franchisee of the Year.

The pair are becoming accustomed to awards, having also recently received the International Franchise Partner 2010 Award at the With Heart convention in Disneyland.
