Shows, Visitors and Ireland!

Hello you wonderful people! It’s been a little while since the last blog post, and we have been running at full steam here at Airquee with our long – and exciting – stretch of back-to-back shows! Straight after the journey to the EAS in Sweden, which proved to be an excellent chance for Phil H and Mark to meet some great people and customers from Europe, it was the Leisure Supplies Show in Coventry. Due to the size of this excellent event, we had a large number of our staff attend to deal with the number of people wanting to ask about our products. On the first day we had Mark, Phil M, Phil H and Kerry joined by Tilda, Erika and Julia from our amazing Romania team! Ollie was there to join them on Monday and give them a helping hand with the number of visitors wanting to know more about our products. There were all busy in the evenings processing all the orders to make sure customers got their eagerly anticipated products as soon as possible!
Most recently was our very own Cwmbran Show held at our new HQ where we had a variety of inflatables for people to come and witness. Included among this was also our show room, which will always have a variety of our products set up for you to see for yourself whenever you visit us here! It was a busy 4 days for the staff here thanks to children dragging their parents along, providing excellent feedback from our chief critics!  Several members working throughout the event and the weekend to make it the best it could be with the excellent customer service which, along with the amazing smells from the burger van, proving to be a huge hit! Our newest sales person Ollie was eager to help visitors with answers to all questions asked!
We were also lucky enough to have a visit from Barclays Bank who are preparing a media release. Describing us as “champions of local business” they were extremely pleased at the strides we have made in recent times! The company director Phil M himself remarked how the “quality of our product through our innovative approach and commitment to meeting customer needs” is what has fuelled this fantastic growth. As I have a habit of letting you know, we have exciting plans here at Airquee and this is just one of the reasons to watch this space! Due to the interview taking place during the show, we had the fortune of showing members of Barclays themselves how fun and exciting our inflatables are!
This weekend we are travelling across the Irish Sea to set up shop for our Northern Ireland Show! Thanks to Peter Campbell and Cooley Castles we will be having a selection of our inflatables up and available for you to see from 10am until 6pm on Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th. The directors Phil H and Mark will be there to welcome you and answer your questions, and will be joined from some of our fantastic staff from our Romania factory; Adam from Dispatch and Erika from Production! We are then teaming up with Bounce Ireland to show our products to the Republic of Ireland in our ROI Show on Saturday the 7th November!

So much to tell you about the events happening here, where if you can imagine it, Airquee can make it , but this is a blog and not a novel, so some stories will have to be told another day! We will be dealing with all orders from the events now the events season for the inflatable industry is drawing to a close, then on to preparing for the next batch! Busy, fun and exciting times!
