Alan Wagstaff

With over 25 years of sales and promotional print experience, Alan still enjoys being a very 'hands on' part of the Allwag Promotions team. Alan's well-respected reputation within the merchandising industry is due to his honesty and ability to 'perform miracles' for clients especially when deadlines are tight!
As Production Manager/Director, he is responsible for managing all aspects of production from processing paperwork to delivery of your order. Alan aims to ensure all your deadlines are met – even if this means living in the office (this is not uncommon) to get orders processed on time.
