Back to They Say

A broad corporate public relations programme covering media, analysts, merger communications and marketing communications for the UK’s largest independent contract caterer.

hothouse was appointed by BaxterStorey (formerly Wilson Storey Halliday) to raise awareness of the company to prospective customers and employees through the trade and specific sector media. Our rapid understanding of BaxterStorey’s business translated itself into an intensive programme of media relations which quickly generated coverage in target journals and saw the company propelled to one of the most positively talked about in its sector. National television coverage of one of its subsidiaries and a targeted analyst programme increased awareness of the company’s vision, operation and achievements. hothouse directed all internal, external and media communication for its merger with Cater Link in 2004 and also its merger later in the year with BaxterSmith which saw the company become Baxterstorey, the largest independent contract caterer in the UK.
