Welcoming Colleagues to Our New Branch at MediaCityUK
Last November we announced some exciting
news from our Bridgehead office in Hull. As an early Christmas present, we’d won
the Coca-Cola account in Europe and our colleagues made sure to celebrate in
style by putting up branded decorations, treating themselves to cupcakes topped
with jelly cola bottles, and of course drinking plenty of everyone’s favourite
fizzy drink. They were also visited by the customer, who shared some insight
into the brand and why we were the right company for the job. It really was a
fantastic event and a huge achievement for the company as a whole.
A few months later, in April we were
shouting about our new office that would soon open at MediaCityUK in Salford
Quays. This location marks the beginning of another exciting chapter for SGS
Packaging Europe as we continue to make investments across our ever-growing
network.
Now that the new office is up and
running, with a specialist team dedicated to the Coca-Cola Europe account, we made
our new colleagues feel at home by putting together some welcome packs. A
collaboration between us and the customer, these packs included a pen, coaster,
notebook, mug and water bottle that proudly display the company logos (pictured
above).
This highly creative and experienced team
is mainly based in MediaCityUK, with some additional staff in other SGS offices
across the UK and Europe. Together they’re ensuring that Coca-Cola receives the
attention to detail, innovation and passion that our company applies to every
single job that we take on.
If you’ve never been to MediaCityUK, you
really should pay a visit. An international hub for technology, innovation and
creativity, it’s home to huge organisations such as the BBC, ITV, Ericsson and
Kellogg’s, which are joined by over 250 smaller businesses
that are changing the worlds of media, retail and tech. Shaped around
collaboration, sustainability and agile working, this incredible hotspot overlooks
the Manchester Ship Canal and is surrounded by eateries, cultural attractions
and beautiful scenery.
Having an office here is amazing in
itself, but what makes it even more exciting is that MediaCityUK offers access
to advanced technology at The Landing. This is a state-of-the-art centre that
contains studios, labs, a screening room and conference facilities, providing
businesses with the tools they need to further develop the fascinating sectors of
digital health, Smart Cities and the Internet of Things.
Being part of this impressive community
is a real asset to SGS, perfectly complementing our mission to help brands own
every moment when a consumer’s interest can be converted into action.
We’ll definitely have more news to share
regarding this major milestone, so keep up to date with all things SGS Packaging
