Design, film and digital marketing for West Malling's independents
West Malling packs a lot into a small market town. The mainly Georgian High Street is lined with cafés, restaurants, boutiques and old inns, Swan Street leads past the abbey to the shops and gallery in Mill Yard, and the monthly farmers’ market fills the street with stalls. Much of the local economy is independent, owner-run and proud of it.
That kind of business needs marketing with personality rather than a template. We’re based at Union Park in Maidstone, just down the road, and we’d much rather get to know you in person: drop into our office or we’ll come to you. Our crew films in West Malling whenever there’s something to shoot. Here’s what we do for West Malling businesses:

What a Maidstone studio brings to West Malling
Our team knows this corner of Kent well and understands that a West Malling business lives on reputation, repeat customers and word of mouth. We aim to make that reputation visible online and in print.
We film where you are
The crew travels to West Malling for shoots and events, so your film shows your actual premises and the street outside, not a stock location.
Proper conversations, close to home
We like meeting face to face, and West Malling is a short drive from our Maidstone office. Call in to see us, or we’ll come to your shop, studio or restaurant, and a video call is fine too if that’s easier around opening hours.
Honest scoping
We size the work to the business. A small café doesn’t need the same project as a regional firm, and we’ll tell you what’s worth spending on.
Areas we cover around West Malling
We also work with businesses in Kings Hill, East Malling, Leybourne, Offham, Addington, Ryarsh, Birling and Larkfield, as well as further along the M20 in Aylesford, Snodland and Maidstone. Our areas we cover page lists everywhere we work.
