Launched in January 2004, PQ2 has already established itself as a successful distributor of prints, limited editions and cards to the art trade Our 20 years of experience in the fine art and print industry has allowed us to cherry pick the best on offer in the international art and greetings card market. We have now won 3 awards for Business practice and growth, reflecting our commitment to providing a brilliant service for all our customers. Our 10 field agents are experienced and ensure a high standard of sales advice and support throughout the British Isles. Corporate Social Responsibility: PQ2 as a resident of a University owned Business unit have mentored business and creative students of the University of East London. We have done this on a one-2-one basis covering subjects on wholesaling, eCommerce and the creative process of card retailing. We work with a local primary school on occasion. We set themed card design competitions, children from different grades are asked to create greetings cards that they would like to receive. 2007's theme is 'Ecology & Peace'. We had some wicked entries last year...a particular favourite was a Get Well card with a bottle of Jack Daniels instead of a bottle of medicine! Of course we couldnt let it go to the final through but gave us a good insight into what goes on in childrens heads, and the possibility of a new card range!! PQ2 judges the resulting art work and winners are awarded art materials & book tokens to spur on their imaginations further. Excess and deleted stock items are donated to charitable shops or the local school to be recycled and used within art classes. 2 ranges of our best selling christmas cards carry a donation to MENCAP - we raised nearly £9000 in 2005, £12000 in 2006 - we expect to exceed that figure for 2007 sales. We aren't as Green as we would like to be YET, but we will be making changes over the coming years to ensure we fit in to a greener way of life. We are supporters of Novopraxis, a not-for-profit website offering advice on greening your business, and info on tenders for small businesses. Its FREE to join. |
