Everything Dinosaur received some special visitors late last week. Judith Donaldson and Dean Burrows from the Digital Cheshire programme visited the warehouse.  Digital Cheshire provide fully funded business training programmes to help companies remain competitive. Team members have been undertaking some training to help Everything Dinosaur prepare for new company initiatives.  Judith (Senior Business Development Programme Manager) and her colleague Dean were given a tour of the warehouse and offices.

They were most impressed with the “dino van”!

“The training programme from Digital Cheshire has been extremely useful.  It has helped us broaden our skills and it has provided us with a better understanding of the digital world.”

Visiting Everything Dinosaur

The warehouse layout is currently being revised.  Additional racking is being put up to accommodate more dinosaur toys and models.  Each part of the warehouse is dedicated to a different product range. For example, there are parts of the warehouse dedicated to Rebor, to Nanmu Studio and for Papo prehistoric animal figures.  A properly organised warehouse makes the picking and packing of orders for customers much easier and more efficient.

With so many international orders to manage, a well organised warehouse is essential.

Dean Burrows Marketing, Communications & Business Engagement Lead at Cheshire East Council (Digital Cheshire Programme), enquired about Everything Dinosaur’s exports.  Sue explained that there were parcels for customers in the USA, Lithuania and Poland awaiting despatch.  Once these parcels had been collected by the various tracking companies, the next job was to email the relevant parcel tracking information.

Digital Cheshire provides fully funded masterclasses. Their mission is to help businesses by demystifying the digital world, instil confidence and increase productivity.

Sue explained that team members were always keen to learn new skills.

She added:

“Thanks to Digital Cheshire, we have been able to pick the brains of industry experts and learn about how new technologies such as AI can boost our productivity. For a company that sells dinosaur toys and models, we need to keep updating our skillset. After all, we don’t want to become extinct.”
