MOBOTIX has run approximately 150 events at its Gherkin offices over the last year, “and if there is demand, we are prepared to run an additional Retail Technology Challenges and Solutions Seminar, so still feel free to contact us if you are unable to attend on the 14th of June but would be interested in a future event,” Lewis adds.

30 St Mary Axe, also known as the Gherkin and the Swiss Re Building, is a skyscraper in London's main financial district, the City of London and opened at the end of May 2004. With 40 floors, the tower is 190 metres tall and stands on the former site of the Baltic Exchange building. On the building's top level, there is a bar for tenants and their guests featuring a 360° view of London. A restaurant operates on the 39th floor, and private dining rooms on the 38th.

About J Brand Ltd:
Originally set up in 1933 by Joseph Brand as an electrical contracting and repair business in Margaret Street W1, the company today still operates today with the same guiding principle of "Customer Service" underpinning all its many core activities.

With Headquarters still based in Margaret Street, J Brand now directly employs over 120 Staff many located regionally - and offers a nationwide-/-European service.

Diversification has also enabled J Brand to flourish, with pioneering work being conducted in the late 1970s, when data communications was in its infancy.

With the addition of a dedicated support desk facility, configuration centres in London and the North West of England and continued investment in personnel, J Brand is able to offer customers a total network solution for projects across technologies and vertical market sectors.

The success of J Brand is all about listening to clients and tailoring a solution to meet specific business needs.

A significant amount of the projects that the Company undertakes involves working at multiple sites across the country, with a typical installation involving over 1000 sites, across the UK and into Europe that require data and electrical installations as well as PC/EPOS deployment. J Brand can deliver this type of project to tight timescales and often out of normal office hours because of the highly skilled and professional staff.

While the industry trend seems to be towards sub-contract staff, J Brand does not believe this to be the best way forward. J Brand can guarantee the quality of the installations by employing over 120 engineers and never using sub-contract labour.
