A NEW BMW 3 Series car has been won by a couple working for Kleeneze, the Swindon-based leading household products catalogue company.

Liz Cairns and her partner Glyn Hobden from Bristol, were given the car to mark their outstanding sales achievements this year. They were told of their good fortune at the company's annual conference, which was attended more than 6,000 other Kleeneze distributors.

Later they collected the car from Dick Lovett BMW in Swindon.

Liz, previously worked as a secretary and Glyn, who was a painter and decorator, have been working with Kleeneze for more than 10 years and have a group turnover.

They head up a network of self -employed distributors who deliver catalogues and collect orders door to door and who they also train to build up their own retail bases and sales teams.

Their achievements have seen them qualify for overseas conferences including South Africa next March.

Liz said: "The BMW is a testimony to the hard work that we have put in this year.

"There can't be many companies out there offering top of the range cars to their people.

"We are obviously over the moon with the car, and it goes to show that joining the Kleeneze opportunity was the best move we ever made."
