Umi Digital, the creative company set up to provide travel and tourism businesses with specialised digital marketing services has started gaining recognition for its work. The three year old company has won both a British Youth Travel Award and a Hotel Marketing Association award in the space of two weeks.
When hotelier Steve Lowy spotted a gap in the market for affordable marketing services to independent hotels and travel businesses, award wins and a second office location were a distant dream. However, his young team of creative professionals based in London have impressed clients since the outset and now umi Digital is a growing, award-winning digital agency. A second office has just been opened in Salford’s Media City to serve businesses in the North-West of the country.
Every year the British Youth Travel awards raise the profile of the work of organisations engaged in youth and educational travel; umi Digital were delighted to win the silver award for Best Support Service. The Hotel Marketing Association celebrated its twentieth annual awards this year and umi Digital won the Best Website Highly Commended award for the design and build of HOAXLiverpool.com.
