THE OWNER of a successful Raunds promotional pProducts business is celebrating beating hundreds of other firms to scoop a major supply contract.

Alan Piggot of Promote-it! has been appointed the main Midlands distributor for Sweet Attitude.

It means he can now help other businesses promote themselves with a huge range of unique tasty sweets, personalised with their logo and contact details.

Alan said: “This is a real coup for a Northamptonshire business. Sweet Attitude picked me because we have the same ideas about how businesses can use sweets to promote themselves in a really exciting way.

“For example, if a firm has to put prices up, they could send a bag of personalised sweets to their customers to sweeten the blow. Or big firms might give all their staff a box of chocolates with their logo, to thank them for their hard work.
Restaurants, hotels and catering companies are also an ideal target as they offer small chocolates branded with their logo when they serve coffee and tea.

The contract will see Alan selling the personalised sweets to businesses as far away as North London, Leicester, Oxford and Cambridge.

There are hundreds of different types of sweets, jellies, mints, chocolates, biscuits and chewing gums available.

They include a popular range of retro sweets, including Drumsticks, Black Jacks, Fruit Salads, flying saucers and Love Hearts.

Alan, whose business is based in The Hall in Thorpe Street, Raunds, has 32 pages worth of sweets at his website www.promoteitltd.co.uk along with hundreds of other promo ideas.

He added: “Sweets are such fun and a great way for local businesses to make a real impact with their customers.”
