Unilever Events Group
pro-ven has supplied an efficient, friendly, personal service to Unilever for the last six years. Their depth of venue knowledge and associated services are very strong and we feel that we can rely totally on their expertise, both in the UK and the rest of the world. Added to all this, the financial benefit they deliver by using their buying power is shown by the % saved each month in monetary terms. Their Management Information tables highlight where the business is being placed month by month.
Recruit Retail Services plc
pro-ven is a key business supplier-partner for us. They provide us with a consistent, reliable and highly skilled out-sourced solution, allowing us to focus on our key clients and services. As well as proving highly cost effective and efficient, their work is supported by excellent management information that is invaluable to our planning and budgeting process.
Centrica
I have worked with Julian Laxon’s company for eight years in which I have found the knowledge and service to be impeccable, and would have no hesitation in recommending him. What differentiates pro-ven from other venue finders, is their extensive knowledge and understanding of the practicalities involved in getting the right meeting space. They understand that it’s not just about room size, we need to know how easy exit and entrance points are, ceiling heights and power requirements. All of which they take the trouble to find out and warn me about.
Financially their costings are easy to understand and transparent clearly showing any savings made. Which makes creating budgets easy and comprehensive.
Sainsbury’s Supermarkets
I have worked with Julian Laxon and the team at pro-ven for 6 years, which I believe is testament to the service that they deliver.
They strive to really understand the objectives of the events we hold at Sainsbury's to ensure they are sourcing venues that are suitable, and in the ever changing events industry this proves more challenging as events become more interactive and experience led.
They continue to deliver creative venue solutions against often challenging demands, be that budget constraints, tight deadlines or unusual requests. And have put a dedicated team in place to work alongside the Sainsbury's events team in partnership.
