News: Gala Tent has it covered at Wentworth Woodhouse

By

Growing Rotherham business, Gala Tent has secured a marquee signing, a major new partnership agreement with Wentworth Woodhouse to supply marquees and gazebos for a number of events throughout 2013.

The Manvers company will be the venue's preferred supplier of marquees and gazebos which will be available for stall holders to buy or hire when attending Wentworth Woodhouse's exciting range of events. As the prestigious stately home will soon also be offering itself as a wedding venue, Gala Tent will also be supplying marquees for such celebrations.

Giles Newbold, owner of Wentworth Woodhouse, said: "We chose to work with Gala Tent as they are a local company that shares the same values as us and does a lot of work in the local community. We have an exciting range of events planned this year from a black tie Charity Ball to a Spring show, so need a reliable and experience marquee partner. It was great to find such a company based locally too."

Tom McWilliams, event manager of Wentworth Woodhouse, added: "Gala Tent supplied a number of marquees and gazebos for our Christmas Market, which was a huge success. We have an active programme of events planned for the year ahead, so it is important that stall holders can access provide professional looking marquees and gazebos that reflect the quality of the event we will be running here."

Jason Mace, managing director of Gala Tent, said: "It is great to be working with such a prestigious venue as Wentworth Woodhouse and we are looking forward to adding value to their events. We can offer affordable and professional looking stalls and marquees to traders and exhibitors and also provide stunning marquees that make it the perfect wedding venue.

"As a Rotherham-based company, we see this as just the start of a great partnership and look forward to helping to put Wentworth Woodhouse on the map as one of South Yorkshire’s major attractions."

Gala tent is the UK's largest supplier of marquees and gazebos, exporting across Europe and to the US. They moved into new 53,000 sq ft headquarters at Fairfield Park in Manvers in 2011 and secured a finance deal from HSBC worth £2.3m to back the business' strategic five-year growth plan.

Part of the growth plan has seen the firm expand its product range by launching its own high quality play equipment for young people aimed at commercial use by nurseries, pubs, restaurants or for domestic use. Mace added: "We are very excited about the launch of the Gala Play Centres. We have had lots of interest from both families and venues such as pubs and leisure parks, who are looking for high quality activity centres, with a strong focus on safety."
