many national and State SPASA Awards as well as prestigious international awards “We were presented with a national award in the USA for the best pools in the world in Las Vegas,” says Bob. “This shows that Australia is a world leader in design and technology for fibreglass pools.” At the NSPI National Spa and Pool Institute Awards, Freedom Pools & Spas was recognised by an international panel of judges as one of the world’s best fibreglass pool manufacturers and awarded two gold and two bronze awards. “As proud as we are of our bulging trophy cabinet, the judges we seek to please most are the customers we work with every day,” says Bob. Currently, Freedom pools has a staff of 100 in Australia, and 13 in at their location in Spain, plus a roster of sub-contractors, installers, submanufacturers, and sellers. “We are a family. We keep people happy,” says Bob. “When anyone new arrives, we say ‘Welcome to the Freedom Family.’” In some cases, team members actually are family members, as the company has been around long enough to employ some of the children of their early team members. Bob credits that familial loyalty to the quality of the work they do. He says “people are happy going home knowing they’ve done a good day’s work.” The positive relationship with their employees is upheld with Freedom Pools’ suppliers. “Our supply chain is very important,” says Bob. “We have a couple of suppliers we’re working with to improve our product and materials. They make the product in the factory and they don’t know what it’s like out in the field.
