Farm Business Innovation Show 2017

Farm Business Innovation Show 2017

The Greenspan team were delighted to be able to attend the Farm Business Innovation Show held at the NEC, Birmingham on the 8th and 9th November 2017. Greenspan were amongst 500 companies and organisations exhibiting at this year’s show.

Spread over two days, thousands of visitors flooded through the doors and the Greenspan team had the privilege of speaking with a large number of visitors who were particularly interested in how Greenspan could help them to diversify their land, and create extra revenue.

Exhibiting alongside a mix of ice cream makers, yurt manufacturers, holiday lodge manufacturers, biomass specialists, rural retail & hospitality specialists, rural planning & asset management specialists, and even a couple of Alpacas! Greenspan added to the wide mix of expertise on offer at this year’s show.

 

The Greenspan stand featured a scale model of one of our latest indoor play projects, this immediately captured the interest of passers-by and opened up opportunities for some really interesting conversations with visitors, particularly around adventure play and indoor play which seemed very much on their radar.

A packed programme of keynote speakers and seminars covering a wide range of topics added to the success of the show, ensuring that both visitors and exhibitors left feeling equipped to move their ideas forward.

The show not only proved to be another great opportunity for Greenspan to meet with a large number of visitors, but also to network with other businesses and gain a wider knowledge and understanding of the services available to land owners, to compliment Greenspan’s offer.

It was a great show for Greenspan and we are very much looking forward to developing some excellent relationships with the vast number of visitors that came to see us at our stand. Thank you to those of you that came to see us, it really was our pleasure! We’ll be at next year’s show on the 7th & 8th November 2018, so be sure to put the date in your diary!

Latest Project

Hendra Holiday Park

Hendra Holiday Park is an award-winning holiday park located close to Cornwall’s north coast, near Newquay.

Hendra are Visit England winners, scooping a Bronze Award in the Camping, Glamping, and Holiday Park of the Year category 2023. They also went through to the Visit England finals after winning Gold at the South West Tourism’s Holiday Park of the Year. Hendra is a five-star destination, home to bespoke Hendra holiday homes as well as touringcamping, and caravan pitches to suit everyone’s holiday needs.

The word Hendra is Cornish for ‘Home Farm’ which is perfect for this family-run site, set up in 1972. They are home to a huge range of family-friendly activities and amenities, ranging from Oasis Fun Pools – one of the largest indoor fun pools in the South West, to live entertainment and kids’ activities.

Hendra Holiday Park asked Greenspan to design and build a 9-hole Palm Beach themed Adventure Golf Course for the opening of their 2024 season. Our designers took inspiration from the surrounding coastal towns when coming up with the initial concept design, with the intention of bringing Newquay’s fun, vibrant and family-friendly atmosphere straight back into this site. The team were able to achieve this by incorporating sea themed creatures, treasure chests, a revolving flashing lighthouse, life-sized surfboards and a gigantic deckchair – perfect for your family photos!

It was important for us to work closely with the client, be fully transparent and take them on the Greenspan journey. Ensuring that the final installation, not only reflected the initial concept design, that the client saw and loved, but exceeded their expectations was crucial. We have designed this course so that it can be played during the day and into the evening, by people of all ages and abilities to enjoy and create memorable moments that will last a lifetime. – Chris Marais, Project Manager. 

Keeping it local… Our team pride themselves on supporting local companies and suppliers when completing our projects, which can be seen in the landscaping of this mini-golf course. All of the planting areas and rock edgings are constructed by locally sourced products which not only supports local businesses in the area, but also reflects and enhances the local environment.
