A Derby company which has developed an innovative new range of blinds has moved its head office to Oberoi Business Hub in Pride Park.
Blind Screen is the brainchild of entrepreneurs Lenny Reynolds, who has operated in the blinds industry for more than 20 years, and marketing and lead generation expert Paul Cheetham MCIM.
Now based in Pride Park, Blind Screen plan to grow their sales and product development teams and will also hold training for national retail and installation partners.
The company, supported by Ascend funding from Derby City Council and Vision Derbyshire from Derbyshire County Council, has recently appointed a major UK-based manufacturer and already has nearly 250 distributors based across the UK ahead of the official nationwide launch early next year.
Paul Cheetham said the business “needed a head office not only for [its] growing team but also with the facilities to hold training sessions for around 50 different businesses every week.”
He added: “Oberoi Business Hub was therefore the perfect solution. It has given us the facilities we need now and the capacity for future growth. The location in Pride Park with excellent road, rail and air transport links make us easily accessible for our network and gives us the business address that adds kudos to the quality of our brand.”
Kavita Oberoi OBE, founder and Managing Director of Oberoi Business Hub in Pride Park, said: “Blind Screen is yet another example of why Derby is the capital of innovation and we are delighted that they have chosen Oberoi Business Hub to base their head office and pave the way for future growth.
“This is an exciting new range of products which not only look fantastic in homes and commercial premises but will be a game changer to keeping warmth in and, with increasing global warming, protecting buildings and their inhabitants from air pollutants and extreme temperatures.”
Business Hub manager Jodie Brady concluded: “We look forward to working with Blind Screen to support them as they take the world by storm and achieve the success that their innovative product development and entrepreneurial spirit richly deserves.”
