TOOP+TOOP 2026 Annual Awards: Celebrating the Year That Was

At TOOP+TOOP, achievement is measured in more than numbers. It can be seen in the trust of a returning client, the referral passed between colleagues, the review written after an exceptional experience and the team member who steps forward when it matters most.

On Thursday, 13 August, we gathered at Yakisan, 88 O’Connell Street, North Adelaide, for our 2026 Annual Awards.

The evening celebrated excellence across every part of our business, recognising outstanding sales performance alongside property management, customer service, growth, collaboration and long-standing contribution.

No single award can capture the work of an entire year. Together, however, they tell a compelling story about the people who continue to raise the standard while remaining firmly focused on those we serve.

Celebrating Lasting Contribution

Exceptional businesses are built over time, and we were proud to recognise two important service milestones:

  • Five years of service: Kristen Goedecke

  • Ten years of service: Amy Bland

Their commitment, knowledge and contribution have become part of the fabric of TOOP+TOOP, and we thank them for everything they have brought to our team.

More than 40 years after TOOP+TOOP began, our foundations remain unchanged: Reputation, Evolution, Relationships and Excellence.

These values are present in every achievement celebrated on the night, but also in the quieter moments that happen throughout the year. In every client conversation, every problem solved, every colleague supported and every opportunity to deliver more than expected.

Congratulations to all our 2026 award recipients, and thank you to every member of Team TOOP for the role you have played in another remarkable year.

To our clients, thank you for continuing to place your trust in us. It is a privilege we never take for granted.
