Currently based in Birmingham, Hollywood Monster has set its sights on London for its expansion plans.
The company is one of the largest wide format printers and signage companies in Britain and is known for having completed projects across the country as well as Europe. Now the signage experts are expanding to London, starting with the formation of a business development team that serves solely clients in the capital.
Leading the team is Oli Barton, business development manager. Mr Barton became affiliated with Hollywood Monster whilst working in Birmingham from 2009 to 2012 and has since used them continuously as a supplier in his various roles throughout the UK.
Mr Barton said, ‘I am so pleased to now be part of a company that I have for so long worked alongside. As a customer, I experienced first hand the quality, service and reliability that the company delivers and I’m excited to be able to offer that same level of professionalism to others. As business development manager I hope to continue the growth demonstrated by Hollywood Monster in London, the world’s most exciting city, and deliver long term value with more people becoming aware of the award winning service that the business is renowned for.’
The team will be responsible for identifying new clients and opportunities for growth in the retail, construction, development, and sports and leisure sectors across the city. The company’s projects in the capital span the centre: in the summer Westfield London was revamped, treating shoppers to something brighter; Piccadilly Circus was regally robed in red and gold in the autumn, and before Christmas, Marble Arch was given a festive fix.
Simon McKenzie, sales director, said, said, ‘We are really proud of the work that we’ve completed so far in London, particularly because each job has been so unique. We gave Westfield London a monster makeover, bringing a splash of colour to the somewhat grey English summer, but then not even six months later we helped Samsung create a 100 metre advent calendar in time for the Christmas countdown. The work we do is never the same and I’m looking forward to seeing what other innovative projects we can bring to life in London.’
