When brothers Lucin and Regan McFall took over the Te Awamutu company, Fuel Storage Ltd, they made the decision they would support other local businesses when- ever possible. So when it came time for rebranding their company, they headed to Alexandra Images to see owner Ange Mason. The decision proved to be a winning one, as their business has just been given some great exposure on a national stage. Alexandra Images was the only gold medal winner in the corporate brand (interpreta- tion and delivery) category at this year’s New Zealand Sign and Display Awards in Roto- rua. Owner Ange Mason was recognised for the work she did creating a new corporate image for Fuel Storage, receiv- ing a gold medal for corporate branding and and bronze for in-house design.
