Al provides a real boost to Pixel8’s management team and will be fundamental to business growth.  The new position has been created to ensure that Pixel8 maintains its high quality standards as the agency continues to expand.

Al spent 10 years as studio manager at Manchester United Merchandising Ltd, overseeing a wide variety of projects ranging from product range design, right through to events and store concepts.

Most notably was his work researching and designing the style guide documents that were used to direct over 50 licensees with their creation of products spanning over 150 categories. His work creating and art directing the Manchester United Premier Cup events, the largest under 15 football tournament in the world, showed his ability to create a strong visual style and oversee its use throughout the tournament on various products, event signage, website design and event launch video, meant Pixel8 knew he was the right person for the Creative Director role.

Pixel8 already has over tens years expertise creating corporate branding, logo design, packaging design and web design projects for sports related clients including Manchester United and Manchester Sport and Leisure Trust.

Nigel Daws Joint Managing Director of Pixel8 said, “Al brings a wealth of experience, further cementing our credibility within the sport sector”.

Not only because it gives us the opportunity to demonstrate our wealth of packaging design expertise, but we are hoping that it might just rub off on some of the the guys in our design studio.

We created a number of product design solutions and await the decision to create the final artwork and see the product on the shelf!

Having developed a unique brand design and helping the company to develop their brand and future marketing materials, we feel that we have contributed greatly to the business over the year and have provided a truly bespoke website design, we hope to see the Boxfresh blossom into one of the largest home delivery organic box services in the UK.

Pixel8’s ecommerce website solution is a sophisticated website that seamlessly links their stock management system with the website, ensuring that the products are available at the time of order.

Payment and delivery detail management is also automated making the whole fulfillment experience part of the main business. Fully managed and hosted on a dedicated server, an SQL database was set up with web services enabling seamless interaction with the main business data warehouse.
