Tim Cowsill, development manager for a company named Business Agency, has given Ramsey Commissioners a brief presentation on his proposals for a town branding exercise.

He explained that the intention would be to identify Ramsey’s unique selling points so that a co-ordinated branding exercise could be managed to increase visitor numbers and bring associated benefits to the town.

It was hoped to develop partnerships which might, in time, take over from the former regeneration committee and create a long-term town vision as a means of attracting development and providing business opportunities.

Members were broadly in support of the proposals and agreed to facilitate meetings with local businesses.
