Free London newspaper the London Lite has held an awards ceremony to recognise the work of its distributors.

Its annual London Lite Merchandiser Awards, which are in their second year, awarded vendors in categories such as Merchandiser of the Year, Best Product Presentation, Most Environmentally-Conscious Merchandiser and Team Leader of the Year.

The presentation evening took place earlier this month at the SeOne club in London Bridge and was organised by the Network Events Team.

Ted Young, editor of the London Lite, said: "Our vendors are the smartest and the most polite in the capital. I'm extremely grateful to them for helping us to become London's most popular evening newspaper."
