Pomegranate's REGENUVITE Natural and Organic Skincare Range has Successful UK Launch

In development for over a year and in planning for several years, Pomegranate’s Regenuvite™ natural and organic skincare range launched in  the UK at Natural & Organic Products Europe in April at London’s Olympia and online at www.pomegranatestore.com.

The launch exceeded expectations with a high level of international interest in the Pomegranate brand so as well as following up enquiries from UK retailers, the Company is dealing with enquiries from distributors in 18 countries.

“We weren’t expecting this level of international interest at this stage but it seems our luxury branding, attractive packaging and quality natural ingredients struck a cord with buyers,” says Pomegranate’s founder, Chris Sams Rafferty (Sam).

 “Pomegranate’s skincare range is - like the fruit  - full of good things,” says Sam.  It also comes with a promise.  “With organic content in the skincare range of 80% - 97%, quality of ingredients is very much part of our ‘Hand on Heart Promise’ which is an important part of our branding,” she added. “Consumers are very confused about what natural and organic means in personal care and skincare products, they’ve been misled and often don’t realise that companies may label products as organic with as little as 2% organic content.  The promise is very personal to me,” adds Sam. “It means that we will always be looking for the best natural and organic ingredients, giving our customers the best products we can, whilst helping them make informed choices.”

The Pomegranate Regenuvite™ range comprises natural and organic skincare and accessories plus a choice of key supplements to support skin from within.

Our Client ManxDining.im Celebrates Launch

Sara Stine Bauerlund, founder of ManxDining.im 

Over 60 people attended the launch of new business ManxDining.im

New local start-up ManxDining.im celebrated the launch of its dynamic new service at a preview event on Monday 16^th April.

The web service developed by ManxDining.im aims to make it easy for people to choose and book restaurants and order takeaways online, as well as bring greater visibility and access for local restaurateurs.

The fledgling business has already received fantastic feedback about the platform with over 20 restaurants and takeaways signing up pre-launch including L'Experience, The Mailbox, Isola, Delizia, The Liverpool Arms, Portofino, HQ Bar & Restaurant, The Lime Tree, JAR Restaurant, Pizza King & Baileys Pizza, with many more in the pipeline.

ManxDining.im provides a central place to visit for dining options and is expected to be of particular value for visitors to the Island.

People can visit ManxDining.im to view and search restaurant options, cuisine types and menus, make bookings and find out about special offers, theme nights or entertainment at restaurants.

   

Founder of ManxDining.im Sara Stine Bauerlund explains: “The idea behind ManxDining.im is to meet the needs of the discerning diner and make it easier for restaurants and foodies to connect.  We have improved significantly upon other similar platforms, bringing many advantages for users.

When I lived in Copenhagen and London, I often booked tables at restaurants and ordered takeaway meals through different websites. There was no website that offered all services so I decided to launch my own with all the functionality people need in one place. This also helps support local businesses and the Isle of Man has been the ideal place to launch the model initially.”

Chris Tompkins, manager of HQ Bar & Restaurant says of the new service “ManxDining.im improves our guest reservation management process. No matter who takes the reservation, we can now quickly identify regulars and ensure proper tracking of special preferences every time.”

Isle of Man Business Centre hosted the event, which was attended by over 60 local food businesses, members of the local business community and representatives from the Department of Economic Development, including Economic Development Minister John Shimmin MHK.

The development and start-up of ManxDining.im has been supported by Isle of Man Business Incubator and The McKenzie Trust.

Economic Development Minister John Shimmin MHK  was amongst the attendees at the ManxDining.im launch
