Empowering Local Businesses: An exciting visit from local MP, Kim Leadbeater

As a business, having the opportunity to meet with and discuss your work with your local Member of Parliament (MP) can be an exciting and rewarding experience. Recently, we were thrilled to welcome our local MP, Kim Leadbeater, to Duvalay HQ for a tour around and to chat about the growth we have had as a company over the past few years.

Ms. Leadbeater has been a strong advocate for supporting local businesses and promoting economic growth in our community so it was wonderful to showcase our hard work and dedication and to discuss the positive impact we have had on the local economy.

During the tour, we showed Ms. Leadbeater the various stages of our production process, from raw materials to finished products. We explained the level of expertise and care that goes into each item we create, emphasizing our commitment to quality craftsmanship. It was gratifying to see Ms. Leadbeater's genuine interest in our operations and the pride she expressed in our accomplishments.

After the factory tour, we guided Ms. Leadbeater through our showroom, where she had the opportunity to see our products up close and learn about their unique features and benefits. We shared stories of how our products have positively impacted our customers' lives, and highlighted the innovation in our product range.

Throughout the visit, we engaged in meaningful discussions about the challenges and opportunities faced by businesses in our industry. We talked about the impact of the pandemic, including supply chain disruptions and shifting consumer behaviours. Ms. Leadbeater showed a genuine understanding of the issues and offered valuable insights into government initiatives that could support businesses like ours.

Overall, Ms. Leadbeater's visit was a valuable experience for our team. It was an opportunity to not only showcase the growth we have achieved but also to gain valuable insights and support from our local representative. We were grateful for the time and attention she dedicated to our business, and we are confident that her visit will help raise awareness of the vital role that businesses, like ours, play in our local economy.
