A Letchworth GC businessman is leaving behind a successful corporate life to take on an exciting new challenge, opening a Cartridge World store.

Richard Watson, 34, has declared a month of “free ink cartridge refills” during August. Customers can contact the store to request a voucher to claim a free inkjet printer cartridge refill during August, giving them an ideal opportunity to try out the new shop, experience the high quality cartridges for themselves and all without costing them a penny! To request your free refill voucher contact the store on cwletchworth@cartridgeworld.co.uk

Mr Watson brings a wealth of business acumen gained in a career in the City as an accountant specialising in corporate tax work for major financial organizations including Lloyds, TSB and Deloitte.

“I’ve spent many years working for large companies but always wanted to run my own business. I took a close look at the Cartridge World business model and realised that it would have great potential in my local town.

“There isn’t a similar store in Letchworth that offers top quality, low cost printer cartridges so I feel that I can offer businesses and individual customers substantial savings from the outset.”

Richard will initially create two jobs and has ambitions to grow the business with his sights set on creating up to 10 jobs in the future. He sees expansion opportunities arising in the surrounding areas and by offering excellent customer service he aspires to be first choice for people and businesses in the Letchworth area when they are looking to source top quality printer consumables.
