Gareth M. Email & Phone Number

I was born and bred in Larne, Northern Ireland where I went to school and spent the majority of my childhood. I moved to England in 1997, where I studied Design Marketing at The University of Teesside. Upon graduation I moved to London before heading up north to Manchester in 2001. Fast forward to today and I can be found in Manchester and back and forth to Northern Ireland.🌳Tree2mydoorI decided that the time had come for me to set up my own business in 2002. The idea was to create a gift company that specialised in supplying trees as gifts called Tree2mydoor. The first attempt actually failed miserably so I got to work to turn it around and relaunched as Tree2mydoor Ltd in 2003 and haven't looked back since!Tree2mydoor has grown from a twinkle in my eye to a multi-million pound award winning gifting business combining a consumer facing brand & corporate gifting channel. Tree2mydoor continues to go from strength to strength with an exciting future ahead.🌊 CollaberI founded Collaber - a sort of talent agency for things.
