Electrolux - Golf Events & Race Days

Successive years have seen Electrolux, the world’s largest manufacturer of kitchen appliances, tasking Posh Pig Promotions with the organisation of a range of high profile hospitality events.

Golf

Gleneagles was the golfing destination between 2005 & 2007 – the Queens, Kings and PGA Centenary Courses were played in successive years. In 2008, Electrolux moved their flagship event to Celtic Manor and the Twenty Ten Course – the venue for the 2010 Ryder Cup. With a stableford competition for individuals, ‘nearest the pin’ and ‘longest drive’ competitions, guests were able to test their abilities to the full on some of the best courses in the land.

Non golfing ladies were not forgotten either; at both Gleneagles and Celtic Manor they were treated to a day-long range of treatments at the Hotel Spa.

The evening saw a gala dinner, prize giving and overnight accommodation. From airport transfers to prizes and branded mementos, every detail is researched and delivered in a quality manner to ensure that the guests’ visits to these leading venues is an unforgettable memory.

Racing

Since 2005 Haydock Park and Hamilton Park have provided excellent facilities for 100 guests at their evening meetings. In 2008 Sandown Park was added to the roster of events. An excellent meal with wines and a sweepstake made for very enjoyable, relationship building events. The sweepstakes provided some lucky ‘punters’ with cash prizes whilst the Shelter Box charity benefitted from a £500.00 donation from the events.

Additionally Electrolux have sponsored a race at Haydock Park for the past 2 years. Guests have been invited to judge the ‘best turned out’ horse and prizes presented to winning owners and jockeys.

Client Comments

Over the years, Posh Pig Promotions have carried out work for us on a good number of projects, including Golf Days, Race Days and Theatre Trips. Our prestigious Golf & Spa events at Gleneagles and Celtic Manor are typical examples of the quality of their work. Their attention to detail both in administrative terms and in the delivery of the event itself and their highly tuned relationship skills, enable them to relate to our guests and, in so doing, act as excellent ambassadors for Electrolux.

Their particular knowledge of and involvement with golf, makes them a perfect partner!

Golf Events


Electrolux – Golf Event Days UK


Ask any golfer where they would really like to play and Gleneagles would undoubtedly feature towards the top, if not at the top of the list! In 2005 Electrolux, the world’s largest manufacturer of kitchen appliances, took advantage of this golfing fact and in June invited 40 guests to the pinnacle of their golfing desire. Posh Pig Promotions arranged for Electrolux guests to play on the challenging 5,965 yard Queen’s course. However, heavy overnight rain brought near disaster with the news that all courses were closed! Yet, as if by magic, the rain stopped and the Electrolux guests were the first to tee off that day – smack on time! A Stableford competition for both teams and individuals with ‘nearest the pin’ and ‘longest drive’ competitions added to the day’s enjoyment. Gleneagles golf courses are demanding for any level of golfer and the stunning environment was a fitting backdrop for this top-drawer event.


Team Building Events

Deloitte & Touche - Team Building Event

Deloitte has a straightforward goal: To be recognised as the pre-eminent and most trusted professional services firm, famous for the calibre of their people and respected for the exceptional quality of their work. For the past 5 years Posh Pig Promotions have arranged a variety of team building exercises for three Deloitte UK offices - Bristol, Gatwick and St Albans. The days are similar in format - a morning of formal business followed by lunch and afternoon team building. Rewarding staff for all their hard work during the year, the afternoons are given over to light hearted fun like inflatable volley ball, "It's a Knockout", assault courses, driving events, to target sports - to name but a few! On one occasion teams were all provided with video cameras and asked to make a 60 second video on a given subject. All the videos were edited and put on a master tape and shown after dinner that evening. At most events, a variety of evening entertainment is provided: Karaoke, discos and quizzes have all been popular ways for staff to let their hair down, building relationships that will strengthen further once back in the office. The fact that Posh Pig Promotions has provided this service annually demonstrates the value of team building in a dynamic, fast-moving environment. The cost is often offset by an increased understanding of the company's core values and closer inter working - leading to increased productivity.
