The invisible man loved his new PH shirt
Today sees the end of one era and the beginning of another. After many years under the careful guidance of PH Shop manager Sue, the PistonHeads merchandise business will now be looked after by Dread who are based in Milton Keynes.
Things have certainly moved on since we sold the first T-shirt from Sue's shop, back then we would recieve a clothing order every now and then, and today we despatch hundreds of items every month. When you consider that growth has been managed by one person I'm sure you'll join me in giving a virtual round of applause for Sue for all of her hard work over the years.
As the business moves on we need to expand the shop to cope with ever increasing demand. Dread can offer us a greater capacity to store more stock, a faster turn around time for new designs and will have a team dedicated to developing new products and assisting customers with their orders.
We'll also launch a new shop today containing all of the current product range - please take a look and continue to visit as we are about to launch some great new designs.
So it's a welcome to Dan and the team at Dread, we can't wait to see what you can do with the PH range in 2009. It's also a very fond farewell to our good friend Sue. At least she can now come to BTaP and have a few drinks rather than worry about table plans.
We'll see you at the bar soon Sue - thanks from the PH team and all PHers for getting us this far.
