What we are offering
If you are a contemporary art or framing gallery in the south of England, we want to hear from you. We offer comprehensive framing services and online software to instantly and accurately price and design your frames, order, manage and monitor all the jobs that we are working on for you.
It’s software we’ve developed and use ourselves every day, and includes a CRM system to run your framing business. It’s yours, to use, for free.
We collect the artworks, frame each piece and deliver them back to your gallery. With a 50% wholesaler discount, you can mark up to 100% yourself.

Handeling art & Assembly
A trained professional will assemble your frame and artwork to meet your customers’ requirements on the order. We will also attach your branded sticker to the back of all of your frames.

Quality Control
We only mark jobs complete when every piece has been inspected by the senior production manager. Any jobs that aren’t completely up to scratch are flagged and returned to production for rectification.

Packaging & Delivery
When a job has passed its quality inspection it is packaged in protective corners and handy wrap and delivered back to your shop, just a maximum of 2 weeks from when we picked it up.

Pack to the customer
On arrival back at the shop, each frame is ready for you to hand straight to the customer. Finally, you can check our system for any outstanding payments left on the job.
