James Haggas

Hi, my name is James Haggas and I’m the MD of Valley. We’re one of the UK’s largest and most established point of purchase companies, with clients including Masterfoods, Nintendo and McDonalds.

Our mission is to deliver retail marketing that creates sales, brand awareness and innovation in the marketplace. Valley craft every part of the process – including design, development, production and even recycling.

I’m relatively new to blogging and social media, but it’s something I’m keen to get involved with. Hence starting my own blog! In addition to blogging about my own opinions and experiences, I want to use this as a forum to help and advise other businesses.

If you’re a SME and are unsure about your point of purchase or in-store environment, why not drop me a line and I’ll see if I can help? My dream for this blog is that it becomes a kind of free consultancy and forum for business professionals to brainstorm ideas and find solutions to point of purchase problems.

i hope you find it useful, as I’m new to the blogging world, any thoughts or comments are most welcome!
