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
