APS Group hops on board the Boston Duck Tours

We’re thrilled to be collaborating with the iconic Boston Duck Tours, to produce print material for the city’s most unique attraction. The company uses “amphibious” military-style vehicles, replicas of those used during WWII, to take visitors of the city on a historic tour of Boston, both on land and across the Charles River.

Our Boston team have been working with the tour company since January and have been responsible for the production of brochures and tickets. Boston Duck Tours run up to 135 tours per day during peak summer season, meaning a high volume of tickets and brochures are needed over the busy period.

Key Account Manager at APS Group’s Boston office said: “Working with Boston Duck Tours has been an exciting venture for APS Group, giving us the opportunity to work closely with a popular and local organization that represents everything we love about this city – history, culture and entertainment wrapped into one.”

Boston Duck Tours gives passengers the chance to see Boston’s most famous sights, including the golden-domed State House, Beacon Hill and the Prudential Tower. During the tour, the official ConDUCKtors guide passengers through the history of the city, providing them with fun and educational facts about Boston – and maybe even a few hidden secrets!

If you’re based in Boston or you’re visiting the city, why not try the famous tour for yourself? Please make sure to tag us on Twitter @aps_group if you do, we’d love to see all your experiences!

APS Group ranked second in list of the UK’s top 200 fastest growing global businesses

We’ve been ranked 2nd place out of 200 of the UK’s top private companies for international sales growth in the Sunday Times HSBC International Track 200. This also means we’re the highest ranking North West based company to feature in the list.

It comes after a growth in international sales between 2013 and 2015, with overseas revenues climbing
203.49% to £18.5 million in 2015.

Total revenue from Group sales peaked at £82.8 million in 2015.

Nick Snelson, managing director of APS Group, said: “International growth is critical to our strategy as a business. We are honoured to be listed alongside some of UK’s global businesses. To enter the list for the first time at number two is testament to our international reach as a company and the hard work and tenacity of our teams.

Working with vendors in more than 120 countries worldwide, backed up by an international customer service centre and our enabling technology, we’re helping our clients balance global control with local execution. Our aim is to continue to expand our international partnerships and presence.”

We join fellow North West companies such as fashion retailer Missguided and online retailer The Hut Group.  The league table also features UK businesses such as sportswear brand Sweaty Betty and flight search engine Skyscanner.

The 200 companies have created a combined total of new 27,000 jobs and generated £7.1 billion in overseas sales, averaging 39% per year international sales growth.

The International Track 200 is sponsored by HSBC and compiled by Fast Track, the Oxford-based research and networking events company.
