This afternoon Elain and I went to the new hair and beauty salon, TreatYourSkin.com in North Street, Havant.
Having traded online for almost 7 years, working from a warehouse in Downley Road and selling health and beauty products, it has been decided to open the first, of what is hoped to be several, high street salons.
We were met by the owner, Chris Hobbs, and Rachel Willis from NatWest Bank, who explained the ethos of the company, and said that they have already been able to expand the workforce and hope to recruit more in the future.
Hopefully this will be another step in the expansion of the company, and will bring with it further local employment.
