NORTHWICH-based integrated marketing and design consultancy, Parker Design, is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a new head office in the town and record revenue growth.

The agency achieved a turnover of £2.4 million in 2014 – increasing its figures by 51 per cent over the last 12 months.

Moving into its newly designed location at Cheshire Business Park in Lostock at the beginning of the year, the company attributes its growth to an expanding roster of clients in the healthcare and financial services sector, and a boost in demand for its exhibition, digital video and web design services.

“We’re very excited to be celebrating Parker Design’s 20th anniversary in our new office,” said managing director, Andi Parker.

“Our digital and creative teams grew by a third in 2014 and this new building finally gives us the space we’ve needed to take the business to the next level and meet the needs of our expanding client base.”

Starting as a one-man design agency in 1995, Parker Design now employs 21 staff across its two office locations in Cheshire and London.

The agency has invested heavily in the expansion of its digital and creative teams over the past 12 months, hiring seven new employees overall – including creative director Mark Bowers to lead the company’s creative strategy.

In addition to working with companies such as AstraZeneca, Sage, United Utilities and Home Bargains, the company recently added several high-profile clients, including Thomson Reuters, Galderma and Exodus Travel.

Andi added: “The new office truly reflects our personality and how we’ve matured as an agency. We plan to capitalise on our 2014 success by expanding into additional retail and e-commerce markets, as well as hiring several new team members in key areas of the business over the next few months.”
