Guardian Customers' Choice Award, I am sure most of the Guardian's loyal customers had heard of this award. For this award, customers were appointed judges of the products and the winners are based on customer’s preferences.
I started to vote for my favorite brands in  Guardian when I was still study in university. (Yes, I like to shop @Guardian for skin care and cosmetics because of it's quality products and affordable price.)
This year, I'm not only participate in voting (as Guardian customer), I also had the chance to attend the Guardian Customers' Choice Award 2012 under media invitation. :) Happy + Excited!
This year, Guardian celebrated its 12th Year Customers’ Choice Award and this annual event was held @Studio Lounge, Tropicana City Mall. Guardian's business partners, guests and member of medias were invited to this award presentation ceremony.
Xandria Ooi and April Kuan were the emcees for this annual event plus a live feed to listeners of Capital FM 88.9 live by DJ Liang and Deborah from Studio Lounge, Tropicana City Mall.
Let me give an introdcution about the
Guardian Customers’ Choice Award.
The Guardian Customers’ Choice Award’s objective is to recognize top health and beauty brands sold in Guardian stores nationwide. The winners are chosen, strictly unbiased through the “Vote & Win” contest that took place from 2 – 30th April 2012. This year, the responses from customers were overwhelming with 10,000 entries received nationwide.

Below are some of the award winners:
The “Vote & Win” contest not only gives customers the opportunity to vote for their favorite brands, there were also great prizes to be won.
According to Ms. Soon Ai Lan, General Manager, Merchandising,  “Guardian’s Customers’ Choice Award was rated by our customers. This is truly recognition as it is selected by the most important people in our business, our customers. Through their brand acknowledgment it reflects customer’s trust and confidence for the brand and its product among thousands in the market.”
