It’s
been a fantastic year for us at Pall Mall Barbers –
we’ve won even more awards, opened our first UK barbershop outside of London,
and the team are going from strength to strength – as well as having royalty
visit us and working with number of exciting brands. 2020 already promises to
be another exciting year, but let’s look back at some of the highlights.
Prince
William was welcomed to the barbershop by our Founder & CEO Richard
Marshall. Crowds surrounded the Best barber shop, gathering outside to get a glimpse
of the Prince in person. He spoke with our barbers and the team from Lions
Barber Collective at length about the importance of talking about and
addressing mental health issues. He was gifted with our award-winning products,
and joked to our barbers that he didn’t really need too much help in the way of
haircuts anymore! Richard Marshall said it was ‘an incredibly special
occasion which gave me a great sense of fulfillment and accomplishment’.His
Royal Highness The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, visited our Paddington to
talk with our barbers about our work with the Lions Barber Collective. The
Lions are a group of barbers trained through the BarberTalk program to help
clients talk about their mental health concerns and discussing subjects such as
depression, anxiety, and stress.
Ongoing
work that Prince William his
wife the Duchess of Cambridge and his brother Prince Harry are doing to draw
attention to the mental health crisis has been incredibly valuable – and those
conversations are generating plenty of press coverage across the world.
The
visit attracted media attention globally, with Richard Marshall interviewed on
ITV News London and General Manager Daniel Davis interviewed live on Sky News.
The Royal Household also covered the visit, with Kensington Palace and the
Heads Together initiative tweeting and sharing articles about it. The press
from Daily Mail, Channel 5, Hello, People, Daily Express in the UK all covered
the momentous visit. The news spread as far and wide as Australia and Canada!

We
also won an award from the Department for International Trade, naming
us as the Board of Trade Champions for our work exporting both
services and products globally, particularly in recognition of our work opening
our New York barbershop. This marks a huge step for us at Pall MallBarbers as the Government is actively supporting homegrown talent through
promoting exports in markets around the world.
The
award is a result of us working with the Department for International Trade in
growing our export business for our award-winning grooming and styling
products, and the opening of our New York barbershop in NYC’s historic
Rockefeller Center. These two strategies are key to our growth and working to
build Pall Mall Barbers into a truly international brand.
Dr.
Liam Fox MP acknowledged Pall Mall Barbers, saying he was “Pleased
to see this historic company, Pall Mall Barbers, taking a new step into
exporting and working with the Department for International Trade to do
so” adding “I look forward to seeing Pall Mall Barbers building on
its successes to date.”
Pall
Mall Barbers have been recognized by the Department for International Trade for
special recognition for our contributions to improving the UK’s export market
and international reputation, as well as recognizing excellence in trade and
investment. As they work with thousands of businesses across the UK, this is a
huge honor to be recognized as such.
We
were awarded the RLI Rising Star Award at the 14th Annual RLI Awards, this year
held in Hollywood! On April 3rd, the Retail Leisure International Awards were
held at Universal Studios – celebrating innovation in retail and leisure
experiences around the world. Members of the Pall Mall Barbers team
were in attendance as we were shortlisted for the RLI Rising Star 2019 Award.
After taking home the award at the ceremony, we were invited to explore the
Wizarding World of Harry Potter and celebrate the win!
At
the beginning of the night, RLI Publisher Jayne Rafter said: “Tonight, we pay
tribute to the very best of the best, the innovators and those that dare to
push the boundaries; we reward those dynamic projects and concepts that excite
the senses with stunning architecture, exemplary customer service, products
that ‘wow’ and that aren’t afraid to take risks, refusing to settle for
anything but the very best.”
This
year we didn’t just win in Hollywood, but were recognized by official bodies
for our work at home and overseas too. Before we had even opened our Birmingham
barbershop, we were awarded the Most Anticipated Opening of the Year award at
the Corporate LiveWire Birmingham Awards 2019 –
cementing the expectation for our continuing expansion outside of London and
place in the industry.
The
5th Official London Hair & Beauty Awards 2019 bestowed us with a Highly
Commended Recognition in place of the award, and we’re absolutely thrilled with
the recognition here at Pall Mall Barbers. Long may it continue!
