Arkad Healthcare Limited manufactures and markets RELEVA muscle balm, a soothing balm formulated to ease achy muscles and reduce tension in areas such as the neck and shoulders. The balm is enriched with natural extracts of tea tree, eucalyptus and clove and is available through selected local businesses and online.
A £6,240 Small Business Adaptation Grant from Derbyshire Dales District Council supported the development of a professional e-commerce website and specialist digital marketing training, thus enhancing sales and operational capacity. The new e-commerce platform makes it easier for customers to access the product while the training has provided the company with the skills to manage and grow their local and online presence, leading to increased revenue and opportunities for job creation in the region.
The company used local expertise for the project to provide social media, digital marketing and PR training.
Dave Hill (Director) says:
The Small Business Adaptation Grant from Derbyshire Dales District Council has allowed us to create a strong online presence, bringing RELEVA muscle balm to a wider audience. By working with local experts, we’ve not only improved our business operations but also deepened our roots in the Derbyshire Dales community.
