Flashbay.com has recently moved to brand new premises at Imperial Wharf in Fulham, London. ‘Our aim was to arrange for the entire move without any interruption to our business’, states Phil Schlossstein, one of the directors, so the whole Flashbay Team worked closely together and achieved this target. Since its launch in 2003, Flashbay.com has successfully managed to rapidly increase its client portfolio in the UK and across Europe by supplying high quality promotional USB Flash Drives and related products with blisteringly fast lead times at very good prices. "The old office in South Kensington simply got too small for us and we could not add more staff to deal with increased demand", states James Roberts, Director. With its own fully ISO accredited factory in Shenzhen, China, with over 160 staff, Flashbay.com is set to continue to grow into a dominant market player on the promotional technology market. "We probably find ourselves having to move again soon as we gain more and more reseller business as well as final clients all over Europe, now we will concentrate fully on the last few weeks of the pre-Christmas rush" (Phil Schlossstein). |
