“I have been in the craft industry for almost 30 years, but only designing product for the past 9 years.

I never envisaged designing my own products years ago mainly due to my lack of digital experience; I always had a preconceived idea that it was all too complicated.

Just over 16 months ago I decided to design products under my own branding rather than under another companies umbrella, I felt this would give me a little more design freedom. However, the digital/technology side I found quite daunting.

I already had designs planned but had no idea where to start. I have had my own businesses in different areas so understood that quality was key going forward and that a manufacturer with well known industry standards and knowledge was so important. After a great deal of research and collating reviews, I knew that Photocentric would make the perfect manufacturer to partner with. Not only is the quality unquestionable, but nothing is too much trouble when you need help and advice.

I do have to mention Neil, who is often there via email to help me in any way; either to simplify methods, help when I am struggling a little with technology and always eager to ensure I am happy with the finished product. This may not seem a big deal, however, when you are trying to get your business off the ground, I found the support during the process and after manufacturing a key factor as to why I return over and over to have my designs manufactured by Photocentric.

Quality and Customer Service are key in my own business and something I value very highly. These are also key attributes when building a working partnership with any manufacturer and Photocentric meet this criteria and more

In 16 months my business has grown considerably, something that would not have been possible without my partnership with Photocentric and Lisa.

It’s also important to me that my own designs are manufactured in the UK, supporting a UK based business.  It’s also important to me to be part of a business relationship where all parties have the same business ethos and again, for me Photocentric is the perfect business model and fit for Tracy Evans Boutique Designs.

Thanks to this key business partnership, my small business runs efficiently, profitably and with strong values to ensure I offer a quality product and customer service to my customers, whom without I would not be here”.

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Photocentric for around 10 years now, and they’ve consistently been a trusted partner in our business. From the beginning, their commitment to delivering the highest quality has been a key reason we chose, and continue, to work with them. Their quick turnaround times and a team that’s always ready to help made them stand out early on, and that level of service has never wavered.

We use their services to produce Clear Photopolymer Stamps and Mylar Stencils, and the products are always top quality – reliable, consistent, and beautifully finished. But just as important as the products is the team behind them. The support we receive is outstanding – knowledgeable, approachable, and always available when we need them.

Photocentric isn’t just a supplier to us – they’re a valued partner in our creative journey.”
