Exciting Times, Hellos and Goodbyes!

It’s been a busy week for us here at Airquee. If you haven’t heard about the exciting news from earlier this week, we very proudly announced that Airquee Limited has acquired the Air Inflatables name, trademark and Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). Thank you to everyone for their encouragement and support, we are all looking forward to working with the brand.

Our new accountant Clare started this week, so we would love to give her a great warm welcome to the company! Already she is becoming a valued member of the Airquee team, doing the essential training with Phil H (who is extremely glad of the assistance), and adding her expertise to the Accounts department. She has also done the wonderful task of making everyone tea on occasion!

This week was also the final week for our visitors from Romania, with Tim leaving us for his long journey home. We were sorry to see him leave and for us newer members of staff it has given us some valuable insight into dispatch. We said our sad farewells and Sue gave him a big cwtch – a Welsh hug for those unsure of what it means – and Tim will be spending today travelling home and then having a well-deserved holiday. If you need any help with final payments or dispatch until he and Adam return, please contact Keiren or Sue and they will be able to help you.

Today we also say goodbye to our junior CAD designer Harrison as well. We’re all sad to see him go and his Friday dance will be missed. We hope that he has great luck for the future!

We’re getting further on planning our shows and our showroom is shaping up nicely for our October show here in Cwmbran!

An eventful week for us here at Airquee, and at the end of a successful week we have been stung here by the IT failure at HSBC! This has caused delays to the pay of our employees, so we had to put a bit more work into getting our wages - see our new mini film "Anything for a wage", starring Lady Kerry McIvor (she's really getting into the tester role isn't she)!

A long post this week, and a lot to talk about here at Airquee, where if you can imagine it, Airquee can make it. More exciting times to come so watch this space!
