Stax Trade Centres were happy to inject a little extra fun over the Christmas period in the form of Rooftop Run - an addictive Santa-themed online game.

Following its launch on November 29th, the game was played a whopping 74,118 times by Stax customers and members of the public, totalling 706 hours worth of gameplay time. Whilst the game was introduced to simply provide some light-hearted entertainment for tradespeople and retailers, there were prizes on offer for Stax members with the highest scores.  

With Stax members eligible to enter the competition and battle it out for some exciting prizes, the fight for the top spot was fierce. At the close of competition on December 19th, it emerged that the winning score of 6,460 was held by Churchill Builders, customers of the Stax Bristol branch. They were rewarded with an LG Ultra HD 4K Smart TV for their efforts in securing the winning score.

 

Manchester-based CB Windows finished up a close second place, deservedly receiving their prize which was sponsored by our supplier partner, Rawlplug. They recently collected their Rawlplug Gas Powered Straight Second Fix Nailer from the Manchester branch.

The remainder of the top five spots were taken by customers of our Leeds branch. On the final step of the podium were the team at SWS Plumbing. Their prize was a 50L Stanley Essential Rolling Tool Chest, kindly sponsored by our friends at Stanley Tools.

The fourth-place prize - a Kaemingk LED Rattan Decorated Cones - was awarded to Home of Your Dreams and finally, rounding out the top five were Bunker Supplies. Their team were grateful recipients of an Akai DAB Digital Radio LCD Display.

Congratulations to all of our winners. It was fantastic to see Rooftop Run go down so well with Stax customers as well as members of the public. Who will come out on top next time?
