Sam meets the man

Sam meets her hero

Sam meets her hero

It’s not every day you get to meet your idol so Sam Potts our Christmas sales manager was over the moon when she finally got to meet hers recently, the  chef and TV personality Jamie Oliver. 

Lucky for Sam and the team, Jamie was filming a new Christmas advert for Sainsbury’s recently and  Greenleaf were  installing the Christmas decorations for the set.  Sam took the opportunity to say hello to Jamie and have her photo taken. 

Sam tells me Jamie was really friendly and more than happy to pose for photographs and sign autographs for them. 

So keep an eye out for the advert and you should catch a glimpse of our decorations in the background!

Welcome to my first blog post!

by Keith on September 15, 2009

Hi, I’m Keith Kirkham and I’m the Commercial Director of PHS Greenleaf.  Welcome to my first Christmas post!  Over the next few weeks I’ll be letting you know everything Greenleaf are getting up to as far as Christmas is concerned.  And what better way to kick off than to say congratulations to our Christmas Production manager Mark Durose on his recent marriage (yes that’s him, below).

In true Greenleaf style, we couldn’t let him get away without a fuss so those-who-shall-remain nameless at our Christmas production depot in Birmingham decided to share his news with the rest of the world! Looks like the old baubles were rescued from the bin!

Congratulation Mark, glad you got married early so you’d be back in time for the Christmas production rush.

Mark Durose gets the Christmas treatment to his car!
