Process

Care and attention that only a family can offer

D&S has been a family-run business for four decades. The success of the promotions we helped to create has had a major impact on our customers’ brands.

Providing promotional products tailored especially for the travel trade has given us a unique insight into the industry and has helped us develop a tried-and-tested process that results in successful promotions that achieve their goals.

We want you to feel as involved in the production as we are. That’s why we keep you updated at every stage of the process. Step by step you see your vision turned into reality; from design to sampling, from production to delivery.

Quality control is a key ingredient in our manufacturing process. It is carried out routinely at all of our factories, giving you the peace of mind that every product will be developed to a high standard. Everything goes under the microscope and is rigorously tested, ensuring that your promotions are flawless.
