Fancy a Trip to Hong Kong?


From January to March this year a sales incentive was in place for the LSi sales team with an all-expenses trip to Hong Kong at the end of April up for grabs.

As an added incentive the whole company were informed that if all the sales team hit their targets, that one extra Golden Ticket would be awarded one other LSi employee.

With one week to spare before the end of the incentive period, all sales successfully hit their respective targets and various games of chance ensued.

Claire Jobling was the lucky winner and made up the final place.

So with limited leisure time, the group decided the best policy was to "work hard, play hard" and crammed 25 hours into every 24. With the days being spent at the exhibition centre and the night spent socialising, sightseeing and frequenting the dodgily-named bar Sticky Fingers. After spending 3 full days at the gift fair we are pleased to report we were able to uncover some fantastic new products which we are currently finalising prior to launching them in the UK.

On the third day of our trip we travelled into Shenzhen in China, the home of our USB factory. For most of the group this was their first time in China and was a real eye-opener. Shenzhen, with over 15 million people, is the world's 5th most densely populated city.

At the USB factory we witnessed exactly how PVC bespoke products are manufactured, assembled and tested prior to shipping. Being at the sharp end and seeing for themselves exactly how these products are produced will be invaluable when advising clients on their USB purchases.

On the final day in Hong Kong a night at the world famous Happy Valley Racecourse was organised. We were collected by coach from the hotel and delivered to the 5th floor where our table overlooked the amazing floodlit racecourse. The food and drink were in ample supply (all free!) the view was spectacular but the gambling was shocking with only Daniel recording any winners. However it completed an amazing trip and is a must do for anybody visiting Hong Kong.

On Thursday 1st May the team returned back to the UK on Cathay Pacific Airways who had completely restocked their on-board drinks for the return of the LSi girls.

The trip was a complete success and we are working hard with our new supplier to bring you new and innovative products, we hope these ideas sheets and product samples will be live in a couple of weeks.
