Not sure about you, but September has seen a marked improvement in business for us…

We’re not quite back to pre-pandemic levels, although we’re hopeful, we will be by year end.

So, what’s fuelling this resurgence?

Three things really:

• The return to the office, or partial return in some cases
• An increase in orders from the home workers we took on during the pandemic
• Our Greta Thunberg inspired plant a tree campaign

It’s been extremely tough times for many organisations (us included). Yes, there has been some winners like supermarkets and consumer focused online retailers.

But there’s been many more who’ve lost loads.

We wouldn’t have made it this far, without our fantastic team, who acted quickly in pivoting the company to focus on solutions for home workers and home schoolers. These new solutions the team developed, will remain part of our portfolio for the foreseeable future.

Home print and scan solutions remain popular with a further 5 packages being agreed in September, together with an office print service and 10 of our A4 or A3 free photocopier technology solutions.

Which has resulted in a further 16 trees being planted with the help of our mental health charity partner Shiva Trust, at their Rossendale based Meadows Farm facility.

We’re proud that our customers are helping us achieve something significant in the fight against climate change and de-forestation.

Every organisation or individual who signs up to any of our technology solutions, we, and Shiva Trust, plant them a tree, and we send them a certificate showing where it was planted.

It started off as something small, but other companies joined us along our journey, and got their customers involved too. Come the end of 2022, we’ll have planted an amazing 3,000 trees together.

…we can’t all be Greta Thunberg, but what small thing can you do to fight climate change?
