Nottingham PR agency Tank PR has been selected to handle the PR
for the Nottingham Food & Drink Festival 2011.
The agency, which is based in Nottingham's Lace Market, was
appointed by We Are Nottingham, the Business Improvement District
responsible for the Food & Drink Festival, following a
three-way pitch against two other Nottingham PR agencies.
Tank PR will be tasked with orchestrating creative PR campaigns
and generating excellent media coverage for the 12 day Festival,
which is to run from 29 June to 10 July to celebrate the city's
nationally renowned food and drink offer.
Sylvia Manser, chief executive of We Are Nottingham, who led the
four-strong selection panel that appointed Tank PR, says:
"The team demonstrated good experience of the sector and strong
commercial understanding as to what we would like media coverage to
achieve. We feel that their approach will capture the interest of
the public and media, and help to create revenue as well as column
inches for our levy-paying members."
Tank PR, which was founded in 2009 by Trevor Palmer, adds the
Food & Drink Festival to its ever growing list of food related
clients, which includes the Curry Lounge restaurant, retail guru
Karl McKeever and sandwich chain Simply Eat.
