Local business celebrates 15 years in town
WITH its eye catching new orange exterior John Cooper and his team at Go-Go Designs in St Edward Street, Leek, are hoping existing and new customers will be go-going in to pay them a visit.
It was from humble beginnings the local design and embroidery company, who’ s slogan is that they can print anything onto anything, started.
42 year old owner John was contemplating what to do with his future after being made redundant from Thomas Boltons when a chance conversation with a friend led to him starting out in the trade at home with just one machine.
Now 15 years on and a team of dedicated staff run a busy and successful business from the base in the centre of town.
Making up the team is Julie Pointon who has been at Go-Go since 2009, Julie started out doing the accounts for John but has over the years gradually come to have a much more pivotal role in the business dealing with the administration, orders and generally running the office.
Then there is Samantha Neat who has been part of the team for eight years now, Sam works on the design and embroidery side of the business as well as running the selection of complex specialist machines. And most recent and youngest member of staff is Michael Deighton who has been set on to help manage Go-Go’ s growing workload.
Together the team can help supply and embroider or print any design, logo, wording or picture on

Specialising primarily in material embroidery and printing the shop can provide everything from supplying the garments and coming up with a design, to one off personalised individual items.
