Bruce spent 15 years in media businesses in South Africa, ending up as the CEO of a full-service corporate and investor relations agency. Bruce sold the agency to a multi-national firm and moved to the UK with his family. He invested in Interlink Express, a parcel delivery franchise, and spent the next few years building the customer base to over 280 Devon businesses. Interlink Express was merged into DPD and Bruce’s days as a franchisee came to an end, leaving him free to return to the industry he knows and loves best.
Bruce says: “I was fortunate to be introduced to One Media by the founder, Paul. For over ten years Paul and his team have built a top-quality company that provides a really great client list with all kinds of ways of getting their message in front of key markets. We have a host of magazines including those in the One Magazine stable which go to over 120,000 households every month, an energetic website development wing, and the ability to provide a full range of design, print and distribution services.”
“Our success is due entirely to the success of our clients – we give them platforms that work.”
