The Hisense French Door Fridge has won the 2018 Product of The Year award, in the Home Appliances category, in South Africa’s largest independent consumer-voted survey. The annual awards gala, celebrating 10 years of rewarding innovation and excellence in the country, was held at The Maslow Hotel in Sandton on Thursday, 22 February.
Product of The Year is the world’s largest consumer-voted awards ceremony for product innovation, and guides consumers towards the best products in their market, while also rewarding manufacturers for quality and innovation.
Winning the award for the second year running, Hisense fridges are proudly South African, manufactured in the Chinese multinational’s local factory in Atlantis in the Western Cape. Ryan Curling, Hisense South Africa’s Marketing Deputy Executive says, “We’re delighted to have won this award and are proud that South African consumers love and support our locally-made products. This is not just recognition for the brand, but for every South African in the assembly line at our factory. We’re proud that our high quality products – and the hard work that goes into making them – are recognised.”
“The Hisense brand continues to make great strides in the South African market by winning consumers over with its locally manufactured innovation. The new Hisense French Door Fridge won thanks to its great design coupled with inverter technology that ensures consumers are able to save on their electricity usage,” says Preetesh Sewraj, CEO and Chief Innovation Analyst at Product of the Year South Africa.
The award-winning Hisense’s French Door Fridge boasts Dual-Tech Cooling Technology that provides separated cooling, ensuring different compartments maintain their own ideal temperature.
