NIVO returned for a fifth year to Oulton Hall, Leeds on Tuesday 7th July to hold its NIVO business networking and golf day – and what a fantastic day it was!
The day was attended by 74 golfers eager to show off their skills and even more eager to avoid getting caught in the rain with umbrellas at the ready! The brief showers did not dampen the fun and excitement as everybody enjoyed the chance to network , build relationships and create business opportunities. After the final hole there was time for a well-earned drink in the Claret Jug. Then followed an evening of great food, loud laughs and fabulous entertainment once again, as in previous years, sponsored by Nestlé Professional.
After dinner, the winners and runners-up were presented with their prizes. Congratulations go to Ian Mitchell from Mars who was the individual winner and David Johnson of Tayto, Craig Holt of Northbridge Vending, Ollie Millson of Millson’s Vending and David Laurie of Tayto who were the winning team.
The combined charitable efforts of all those present on the night raised over £2,000 for the RNIB, the Point Foundation and EdUKaid. Graham Kingaby NIVO MD said “as always, I want to thank all our many sponsors for their support in ensuring this event continues to be a massive success and grows in value each year. Once again the NIVO team have done an outstanding job with the organisation. We aim to keep our standards high and will shortly begin preparations for our 2016 event”.

Runner Up Individual – Graham Flint (Mars)
