Tell us about your business?
Our family story began with a shared love for creativity and my extensive love for Christmas, with Craig still in his Grinch era, and a deep passion for bringing joy to others. Craig, the logistics expert, ensures that all equipment is maintained and that operations run smoothly. Together, we form a dynamic team committed to delivering excellence in every aspect of our business. What sets us apart is our dedication to innovation, quality, and creating memorable experiences for families and customers.
What has been your greatest success?
One of our greatest successes has been setting plans in action for 2024 (as we have just bought the business) by transforming the Santa photo experience at shopping centres. We’ve introduced some real photographic knowledge into our sets, a family relationship with our staff to create exceptional customer service, making the entire process delightful for families and children alike. These are huge elements and most important within this business structure.
What do you value about FBA?
Joining FBA has been invaluable for us. It has provided us with a supportive network, access to resources, and opportunities to learn from other successful family businesses. We value the sense of community and the shared commitment to excellence that FBA fosters.
What advice would you give to other family businesses?
Our advice to other family businesses is to stay true to your values, continually innovate, and prioritise customer satisfaction. Collaboration and clear communication are key to overcoming challenges and achieving long-term success.
