Managing Director Marc Thompson who designed all the new colours and was the brain child behind the new Eco paint told us this week.

" Oxtreegen is a fantastic organisation and we are proud be be linked with these guys."

Oxtreegen is committed to reducing our carbon footprint that we leave behind as business's

Its aim is to reduce Co2 emission by planting trees locally and in the UK.

"this is a local organisation and i was unaware of them and it was only by chance that they came to light to us. On viewing their website i was so impressed with the ethos i just could not wait to contact them and discuss working together."

"Every year we buy contractors and customers a bottle of wine, but then i thought how much better it would be if we brought them a tree to plant, how much more fun this was and better for everyone involved."

Harris & Thompson is committed to its Eco friendly approach and Eco friendly products which is why the new paint range was created.

We are not a political wheel but we would say that if you get chance and your wondering what to get someone as a gift, why not visit them at www.oxtreegen.co.uk

you will be so amazed its easy to help the planet breath.

Harris & Thompson Awarded Runner up in the West Oxfordshire Business Awards 2011 in the New Business Category

A great night was had by all at the first West Oxfordshire Business Awards 2011 held at Eynsham Hall on Friday 11Th 2011.

Harris and Thompson reached the final of the small business category.

Managing Director Marc Thompson Told us " It is always a great honour and achievement to reach any kind of final whether it sporting or business. This was extremely special for us as we are a new business, and we started this in the worst recession since the 1930's against a lot of odds. We are very proud to have got the runners up award and of course it would have been nice to have won but there is always next year to aspire to. We were up against some very tough competition last night , however I'm very pleased for bush craft who won on the evening and it was well deserved".

It was also a great night for Cornbury Park business park as two of the award winners both have businesses on the park.

We would like to thanks all our staff foe their hard work and of course to all our customers as if it was not for them we would not have a business.

The Harris & Thompson Five A Side Team

On Sunday 24Th Feb 2011 Harris & Thompson entered a team in the Johnstones 5 aside Paint Trophy over in Milton Keynes.

"In rained all day" Said Marc Thompson Managing Director

"We did put out a very good team, well we were 15 years ago however i think we may all be passed it now. The rain just kept falling from the sky until we were soaked through.

Sadly we lost in the second round, but it was a good day out and good for management to get involved with our staff out of work."

We would like to thank Crown Paint who provided and sponsored the football kits.
