Expo. The team engaged with customers like no other stand did, and carried out in depth interviews with nearly 200 in- ternational buyers, all of which Argyll and The Isles, and a real west highland welcome. The stand attracted a lot of VIPs, we even had his grace the Duke of Argyll come and give us a hand. Privately we were told that our stand had set a new standard, and was the most talked about in the show.’
Meanwhile, demand from oth- er Argyll and The Isles based businesses has resulted in the team doubling their book- ing to 12 stands for the 2013 Expo in Glasgow. Meanwhile, the new VisitScot- land Tourist Information Centre on Oban’s North Pier seems to have been a successful move with visitor numbers up
on the previous year.
Following structural damage at its successful site in Argyll Square and a subsequently far less popular move to the CalMac ferry terminal in the town, the new premises have come as a welcome relief for all concerned -
ing in April, Ian Cleaver, chair- man of the visitor information centre committee of Argyll and the Isles, said: ‘I think is a nice location on the pier and I think most people will gravitate to this point, which has a beautiful outlook onto the town.’
