The words shop local are more than important in these testing times for local businesses. With the CONVID-19 lock down extended for another 3 weeks, many businesses who have not shut are having to adapt how they operate in the conditions that they are all abiding by.
Andover has a brilliant array of local independent businesses, and many have adapted to continue operating to provide their products and services to customers.
Here at Andover Radio and Love Andover we are passionate about our town and the many businesses, which is why on April 1st we showed our support to these businesses and announced that we would not be billing our current clients and offering FREE (Not discounted or special price) advertising on Andover Radio with online advertising too.
Every day we will highlight one business a day as part of our free advertising campaign in support for our local business community.
Today we focus on Photos 2 Print:
Located on 6 Bridge Street this wonderful shop has been run by Husband and wife team, Mark and Lesley-Ann Simmonds for 18 years. The shop has a huge range of photo and imaging facilities and gift ideas from canvases to mugs, they also offer services to businesses with printed banners to flyers and leaflets. They also have everything for your printer with a huge stock of ink cartridges.
The shop has a great reputation and competitive prices that sees a large number of customers continue to use the family run shop for their photo and printing needs. The shops success has been built on a highly successful marketing campaign which won them their 2nd award with the best radio marketing award. The “My Dad’s Shop” campaign can be heard on Andover Radio and has been since the radio station launch on the 22nd April 2018.
Lesley-Ann and Mark have adapted they way they operate and you can still use their services online with a home delivery service. You can order also through Facebook as well.
Lesley-Ann told Andover Radio “Since this virus we have had to adapt how we are serving our customers, we are officially closed, but at our shop daily, so can take phone orders for things like ink and laser cartridges.
We are offering free delivery service (with no contact), we’ve gone online via Facebook, our website which is www.cartridgeandprint.co.uk, you can buy frames from this site and we use social media more to inform our customers of what’s available. We are also stocking and selling essential food to help those who find it difficult to come into the town centre.
