What Do We Supply?

We started off special iz ing in the

product ion and supply of promot ional

g i f ts and corporate c lothing, both

off - the-peg and bespoke manufacture.

As we grew more and more, our c l ients started request ing

point-of-sale products, such as wobblers, pul l -up banners,

gazebos and f lags. This then grew into general s ignage.

We have always had a strong design studio creat ing v isuals

for our customers and redrawing their logos. The natural

progression was to offer logo creat ion and corporate ident i ty

documents.
