STAG news
Two STAG members recently celebrated trading landmarks ˆ Don Rogers Sports, in Swindon, and Norton Sports and Camping in Midsomer Norton. Norton Sports and Camping, a STAG member since 2003, is celebrating 20 years in business. The sports and outdoor retailer, based in Midsomer Norton is owned and run by John Sharp. "Our customers demand quality.
Being a member of STAG gives us the opportunity to access that quality through major brands and take advantage of some very competitive discounts. Brands such as Gelert and Hi-Tec for the outdoor market and Puma, Mitre, Emsmorn and Umbro amongst others for the sports market are all popular choices for our customers."
Meanwhile, in Swindon, former Swindon Town footballer Don Rogers is enjoying 40 years of success off the pitch following his hugely successful career on it. Don, a STAG member for nearly a decade, has had his sports shop, Don Rogers Sports, in the same road in Swindon since 1968. A year later Don achieved hero status amongst Swindon fans when he led the team to a 3-1 victory against Arsenal in the 1969 League Cup Final.
Rogers' shop, which offers a range of specialist footballing goods and services, has survived and prospered despite the growth of the larger corporate names that have moved into Swindon town centre. He said: "We joined STAG nearly 10 years ago and it has been one of the best business decisions we have made. We get access to leading brands at unbeatable discounts."
A regular at the annual STAG Show, Don is looking forward to the new venue for this year's show, the brand new Cotswold Water Park 4 Pillars Hotel. Don enthused, "The STAG Show in November is a must. I never miss it, there's always excellent business deals to be done during those two days. I'm really looking forward to this years show at the new venue and as it's just around the corner from me I could probably cycle there this year."
