A Grand Day Out 11/11/10

Thursday, November 11th, 2010

Nottingham’s premier screen printer, Dot Promotional Clothing, met PenCarrie www.pencarrie.com on tour at the rugby hot bed that is the Leicester Tigers ground.  Thanks go out to former Leicester Tigers and England rugby player Ben Kay who showed us around the ground and stadium, and thanks also to PenCarrie for hosting the event.  Dot were there to find out what’s new in the garment supply field.  Screen printing and embroidery is alive and well in the East Midlands!

Check out our photo, L-R is Richard and Zach from Dot, Ben Kay, and Paul Green from Applegreen Promotions.  We would like to take this chance to wish Ben every success with his new career as commentator for ESPN TV.

Train to Gain

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

We have recently signed up two of our screen printers to the Government ‘Train to Gain’ scheme http://www.traintogain.gov.uk/ This involves work based learning and formal NVQ qualifications delivered in house on a monthly basis by Leicester College http://www.leicestercollege.ac.uk/, who specialise in manual carousel screen printing. As well as monitoring by a qualified trainer and assessor, the guys will have to produce written modules on all areas of the business. Good luck to Brett and Sam!
