Fresh Sponsors
Shortcuts Film Festival

As part of Fresh's philosophy of helping creativity, Fresh sponsored the 2nd Annual Shortcuts Film Festival.

It was an event where budding filmakers  showcased their talent and showed a captive audience what Buckinghamshire has to offer.


There were four showcase events and screenings all over the County, and Fresh were proud to be associated with the festival.


Cliff Productions who host and stage the festival were excited by the material that they would be screening with festival Director Darren Cliff commenting, " This has been very hard to choose a winner from the exceptional standard of entries we have had".

The day at Aylesbury College was marked with a trade show in the afternoon before the  screenings in which it gave the chance to see the creative flair from local businesses.

Fresh embarked on a branded popcorn holder with popcorn for everybody who attended the screenings and had rave comments about how stylish and different the holder was. Darren Cliff, the festivals Director said, " Fresh have worked to tight deadlines and delivered, and the popcorn holders were great."

Kevin Brook, Director of Fresh replied, " I would just like to say thank you to Cliff Productions for inviting us to help support the festival, when Andy, Ian and myself started Fresh we wanted to be different, this festival gave us the opportunity to do just that".

Open Day At Fresh 


As part of our 1st birthday celebrations at Fresh, we held an Open Day for clients to thank them for their business so far. It was a chance to meet our team and see the full range of services Fresh has to offer.


The day was well attended and all enjoyed the informal atmosphere of the celebrations. Director Ian Swanell commented,"It's been a great day for us and for our clients as few of them had seen our facilities or met the whole team before this occasion."

 
With champagne and a guided tour on arrival, the day helped reinforce our friendship with clients.The winner of the free prize draw for a bottle of bubbly will be announced shortly. 


After a very successful first year Director Kevin Brook said, " We're very pleased with the way the business has progressed, especially in light of the economic climate. Now we have the first year under our belt we aim to improve and expand on the services that we offer to maintain our position as the area's leading provider of new solutions for helping companies win and promote their business."


Many who attended were pleasantly surprised at how large the operation at Fresh is. One customer commented, " I am absolutley delighted to come today as I have always spoken to Fresh on the phone but now I have seen for myself how big they are and how much they can do.Their success doesn't surprise me."



Another added, "I've already experienced the excellent customer service at Fresh but, wow, there are so many aspects of their business that I was not aware of like the promotional giveaways and the huge exhibition stands. It's been enlightening to come and see for myself what they can do."


Director, Andy Gerlack reviewed the day by saying " What a great end to our first year.The feedback's been amazing and I have heard nothing but fantastic comments all day long. One client, however, summed it all up for me when they remarked, 'You make my company look good and you are so different.' That made me feel very proud as it is exactly what we strive to achieve. We always said we wanted to offer a service that sets us apart from our competition which is why our strapline is 'Design and Print The Way It Should Be.'


So, if you want to experience our success, call Fresh with your design and print requirements on 01296 489998 or email hello@freshdps.co.uk

Waddesdon Manor commission Fresh to produce book

Most people wouldn't think of Fresh as book printers but Waddesdon Manor know that this is not the case.


In April, Director Andy Gerlack was approached by the Head Designer of Waddesdon Manor, Jane Cliffe, to produce a bespoke leather bound book with a presentation case for a dinner party hosted by Lord Rothchild to celebrate the Duc Du Choiseul Exhibition, which was held during the summer months.

After months of hard work, Fresh completed the project successfully and produced 200 paperback versions, which are now on sale in The Manor shop.

The hardback book was a masterpiece of craftsmanship using traditional leathers and bespoke gold foiling and marbling papers which enhanced the richness and quality of the printed pages inside.

Head Designer Jane Cliffe commented, " I was absolutely delighted by the quality and result of the workmanship and the attention to detail that went into this prestigious book. I am responsible for the design and standard of the finished article and I can honestly say that Fresh met my expectations completely and I want to thank all the team who endeavoured to make this such an easy project and into a work of art that is now also selling in the shop."

Director Andy Gerlack commented "When I was approached to do this project, I was immediately excited  as I knew this would challenge us and stretch the experience of our team. I can safely say now that I am pleased with how it turned out as we all need to do things now and again to show what character we have and I now know that Fresh is and will be the most diverse design and printing company in this area. We have the most gifted and experienced team I have worked with and I am very proud of what we have achieved here. We are not renowned for this sort of project but if there is anybody who would like their book to be published but can't afford publisher's prices then WE are the alternative, just look at the results here."


So if you have written a book and would like to see it in print or you need just a small run then call Fresh on 01296 489998 or email hello@freshdps.co.uk
