Moving on up - and out!

By Leyland Leader

21 Jul 2016

A Lancashire business couple, who spend their lives boosting other people’s businesses, have given their own company a major boost.

Stephen explained: “The family firm has expanded, our son Ben has joined the team along with other staff members and the move out of our house became inevitable.

Ad-Options trade under the name of several e-commerce websites including BusinessGiftUK.com, BlankKeyrings.co.uk, LoopKeyrings.co.uk and PrintedPencil .co.uk.

The firm enjoyed over twelve years’ service as Payphone Advertising contractors to BT Payphones in the North of England, as well as supplying a wide range of printed promotional items, pioneering the use of full colour laser printing and clear acrylic insert products.

BusinessGiftGolf.co.uk (2003) offered promotional golf items for corporate golf events. BlankKeyRings.co.uk (2006) is as a specialist site for people wishing to create their own promotional, souvenir or fund raising products.

Stephen added: “We now have a ‘family’ of online niche websites for bespoke branded materials. The BriteMatMouseMat.co.uk offers the UK’s best-selling rigid mouse mat. Plus, we have CurvyContourPens.co.uk and GolfGiftUK.co.uk.

The latest development is to promote their own business with the move to larger premises. Here, the five strong team are ready with over 80 years combined experience in the promotional gift industry and will continue to promote everyone else’s business.
