In 2019, City of London Council issued a tender looking for somebody to provide them with their first artificial outdoor Christmas tree. This was all part of their pledge to be more eco-friendly, and it would take pride of place outside St. Paul’s Cathedral – arguably one of the UK’s most recognisable landmarks.

 

We won the tender with our thorough response, and our 40ft Woodland Pine went up speedily overnight in November 2020. It instantly captured the imagination of the public, who took selfie after selfie in front of the tree, with St. Paul’s as their backdrop. One of the public’s images even made it onto TV as the featured image for the BBC News weather forecast!
