He said “We have a digital marketing in China where the social media is banned. We have a team of four in China and three in Lytham.

“I would like to thank the staff, the Department for International Trade and the Chamber of Commerce for their help and Carbonbit with whom we share an office at Jubilee House in Lytham.”
