Company Overview
We are a small family run business based in Darlington Co. Durham. The Company started with Mike (now Managing Director) working from the garage at home……… he bought products, listed products, sold products, picked products, packed products, answered the telephone, made the coffee, cleaned the office….. basically everything that needed doing, Mike did it. Things came to a head when his wife Lynda (now a Director) could not get along the hallway for boxes and could not get to the cooker without climbing over boxes. The ultimatum from Lynda, was stop ebay or get some premises. As Mike was already hooked on ebay, Lime Marketing was born. Mike moved to the premises that we are in now which are 5,000 sq ft and after working together as a partnership, we became a Limited Company. We have 4 sons, namely, Ryan, Tom, Gary and Dan who have all had a stint working alongside us but only Dan has decided to make it his full time career. The staff now consists of: Mike Osborne – Managing Director Lynda Osborne – Director/Company Secretary Kath Powton – Office Manager and Customer Service Dan Osborne – Purchasing & Business Development Martin Powton – IT and Marketing Executive Steve Cavagin – Warehouse Lime Marketing.co.uk Ltd has now expanded into multi channel marketing via the internet on various web sites and auction sites. We sell through Readers Offers in the national press and have a commodity/clearance department. We welcome telephone enquiries (01325 749044) and although we have continued to expand we still remain a small friendly family run business.
