Website opens up new markets and is the gateway to e-trading

The National Forest is a growing attraction that already draws million of visitors to Derbyshire, North West Leicestershire and Staffordshire each year.

Businessman David Smith became involved with The National Forest in 2000 when he was looking to diversify his landholding on the edge of the historic Derbyshire town of Melbourne.

And having recognised the economic and environmental potential of the Forest, David has now established The National Forest Spring Water Company.

The water had been sourced on his land and he had the plan and the business expertise to action it. But 18 months ago he had no marketing materials.

Today he has a corporate identity, stationery, product labels, exhibition banners, flyers and a website – all thanks to Quiet Storm Solutions.

"I knew what the features and strengths of the company and products were and Quiet Storm has translated those into a package of very effective marketing materials. We have had an excellent response to those that have been used already," David said.

National Forest Spring Water – which comes still, sparkling and with four fruity sparkling twists – is due to be launched in late Spring.

Quiet Storm is now working on a brochure for the company and the website is to be further developed to enable on-line ordering.
