Winning a three-way pitch, Heckord is on a growth path for its digital team.

A key contract win puts them in prime position for next year's growth plan and is creating excitement around the agency. 

Heckford has won the Network Plus Group as a client and is creating three brand new sites for the face of its operations: Network Plus, Go Traffic Management and Network Plus Multi Utility will all be launched in January 2023 using the digital team at Heckford.

Digital manager Anthony Camm comments: “This is a great win for the team and one we are really keen to get stuck into – Network Plus is a well-known name in the area so we are really keen to go above and beyond with the contract.” 

Network Plus is a leading utility and infrastructure service provider delivering essential services to millions of customers across the UK. With contracts, depots and sites based in Lancashire they will use the new websites as a springboard into 2023.

Head of communications Shirah Bamber commented: “The Network Plus Group has grown exponentially over the past couple of years. With a workforce of more than 5000, operating nationwide we are pleased to be working with Heckford to develop a new set of websites to better meet our online needs. As a company with its roots and HQ in the North West, it is great to be working with a local company to step into this new phase for our digital presence.”

Heckford is a fully integrated agency with over 45 years of experience, based in Preston and working around the country they are often one of the top marketing agencies from Lancashire in the Prolific North tables.

Managing director Mark Scurr added on winning the pitch: “Being around for 45 years gives us ample experience in client management and meeting the brief. Digital is a huge area of growth for us and the win solidifies our offering within the county”
