Mr Dugdale said "I feel that we can be rightly proud of our achievement at dugdales, as we are competing against the cream of retailers from the big cities such as Manchester, Liverpool, Belfast and Londonderry, plus all the other retailers like ourselves. I would like to personally thank all our staff at dugdales who have contributed to this great success."
