Based in Ashbourne, Funky Leisure is an online camping store that specialises in awnings and camping equipment for VW campervans.
The £7,387 Small Business Adaptation Grant awarded by Derbyshire Dales District Council allowed the company to modernise its packing operations though investment in digital technology and more environmentally friendly warehouse equipment. In turn, this has significantly increased efficiency, reduced overall costs, waste and its carbon footprint
Brian West (Director) says:
Receiving the Small Business Adaptation Grant from Derbyshire Dales District Council has streamlined our processing and packing ability making us stronger and more resilient in a very competitive market. The investment in greener equipment has also lowered the company’s carbon footprint which is good for the environment and very important to us and many of our customers.
