Project Description
Vangarde Shopping Park, York

Everything we do for Vangarde follows a long-term plan to grow the brand and reach a wider audience across the Yorkshire region.

Having turned Vangarde in to a lifestyle brand, we use social media to promote and target specific audiences. In the first three months, reach and engagement increased 250% month-on-month.

The Soapy Group has protocols in place to help with crisis communications, which makes sure key messages and information are output quickly and effectively, 24/7.
