Ever wondered what goes on here at Hallmark?
We’ve posted a few behind the scenes videos over on our Instagram that will give you an insight into what a typical day looks like at our Essex HQ. We’d love you to like, share and comment on our Instagram comment – but if you haven’t got the time to log in and find us @hallmarklabelsandprint, here’s the rundown!
Getting stuck in
Here’s our Managing Director, Amy Dawkins, helping our Sales Executive, Kate Wilson get a delivery out to one of our local customers, Ella Shoes, on a Monday morning. Though we can ship to anywhere in the UK (and sometimes beyond), we often drive bespoke label and packaging orders to nearby businesses if we can; we love chatting to other entrepreneurs and answering any questions they may have about our products in person.
As you can imagine, some orders are bigger than others – which sometimes means it’s all hands on deck to get everything sorted on time. Here’s a quick snapshot of our team unloading a 40 ft lorry of raw material a couple of weeks ago. It was certainly a big job!
Branded tape in action
We’re always mentioning the many benefits of branded packaging tape to our customers, but we know it can be tricky to really visualise what these bespoke products might look like on real packaging. So, we filmed Kate Wilson building one of our standard fold boxes and fixing it with a client’s custom-created tape – and we think you’ll agree it adds the perfect finishing touch to this minimalistic design.
Following our Rotary Manager
If you think creating wash care labels for our clients is easy, think again! We followed Danny, our Rotary Manager, as he took us through the step-by-step process of custom printing these important additions to any garment or accessory.
As one user commented, it does look really complicated – but it is really satisfying!
