Future Present is to open a new design studio and sales operation in Manchester.
The York-based presentation design specialist has made the move after winning pitches for Co-op Live and Puma.
“Despite our home being on the other side of The Pennines, Manchester has long held a special place in our hearts,” explained Founder & CEO, Lyndon Nicholson.
“The people and the city itself make it a fantastic place to do business and I’m excited we’re taking this next step in our development by locating our 3rd office here.”
Nicholson is the former CEO of Manchester-based Buffalo7. He founded Future Present 4 years ago and is targeting a £2m turnover for the current financial year.
“Manchester brands often seek out Manchester agencies. Our SEO and phone traffic tell that powerful story,” added Commercial Director, Gary Corrin, who is also ex Buffalo7.
“We’ve had a virtual presence here for 4 years. To make it real and bring on board some of Manchester’s best creative talent is an amazing step on our growth journey.”
The agency employs 34 staff across York and London. It stated that the new Manchester team would be made up of existing team members and “recent recruits from competitors.”
