Lights out, go! iCandy at the races
Nick Kemp- PR Assistant
s a brand we are always eager to support our employees in all aspects of their life, some of which may even fall outside of the workplace. Recently, we decided to enter the unique world of motor racing through one of our team members. Our International Sales Support Nancy Detournay, who hails from Belgium, currently races in the sport of classic motorcycle racing. Nancy has been in the sport for 17 years now, during that time she has been a British Champion a whopping five times, and crowned Belgian Champion twice.
When racing as part of a team, finance and sponsorship is crucial, a team cannot function without much needed funds. The marketing team at iCandy wanted to support Nancy, and decided to sponsor her racing team, this also allowed the brand of iCandy to participate on a great European adventure.
This is a quick roundup of Nancy and her race partner David’ s latest season, written in the words of Nancy herself.“ Our season started on the Easter weekend at Pembrey, where we had four races planned. After a long winter, it is always good to get going again, and the day started with two good practices. It was a solid start to the season, we managed to secure three victories and a 4th place finish.
A terrific opening weekend effort, especially as the elements are challenging throughout as we face both wet and dry track conditions.
