These key awards have evolved into the catalogue and multi-channel sector's definitive measure of success and are a true celebration of excellence for businesses at all stages of development and in all product specialities.

About the ECMOD Awards
When the ECMOD Awards first launched in 1998 few envisaged how important they would become to businesses in the catalogue, home shopping and multi-channel sector, or to the forward thinking supplier organisations that endorse and support them.

How the ECMOD Awards are operated
The ECMOD Awards categories are designed to reflect multi-channel, catalogue producing and online retailing organisations serving business or consumer customers and are now based on merchandise categories. This enables, for example, a fashion business to compete against other fashion business entries; an industrial supplies business entry to compete with others in its product category, and so on. The entries take into account each business' complete calendar year of activity and achievement.

Each year the ECMOD team recruits a panel of independent expert adjudicators who undertake the judging process. Selected Judges agree to treat all submitted entries in complete confidence and not to decline to judge any entries from companies with which they have an ongoing, impending or recent past relationship. ECMOD judges are drawn from the USA and the UK, and undertake the judging process remotely. Their results are filed in a score based format and fed into a master database which then computes the runners-up for each category.
