Client Details

2. They have 3 main distributors in the UK and approx. 15 across Europe.
3. Sourcing from Asia.

Our client's brands provide a coordinated range of clothing for the corporate, promotional and workwear markets. The garments are sold through established Trade Distributors throughout the UK and Europe specialising in this area of supply. The garments are sold with no external branding, so are free for the customers message, be it a specific promotion or company branding.

Our target customer is a supply company, decorator or promotional house who buys directly from the Trade Distributor and coordinates the products for their "End User" customer.

In this highly competitive market it is vital to promote the brands as the very best in their field. Design, quality and continued supply are the grounding for these highly successful brands and these features need to play a paramount role in the success of the brands.
