Hi, I'm Steve Saggers and I operate the Funky-Tents Essex & East London business. I am the companies first franchise owner and after undertaking in-depth product and service training I'm now using my 10 years experience as a leading company Operations Director to great effect as the flag ship franchise operation for Funky-Tents. I was drawn to the opportunity of owning and operating a Funky-Tents Franchise by the great brand reputation, the exciting product range and the total commitment to providing outstanding customer service.





Tom Bloomfield - Devon & South-West



Tom Bloomfield

Hi, my name is Tom Bloomfield and I operate the Funky-Tents Franchise for Devon & South West England. I have been a company director for 15 years and have experience in operations and exhibitions. It was the unique branding, product range and first class customer service which first drew me to Funky-Tents.
I wanted to work alongside a company that is constantly developing new and contemporary products as this ensures that I can always offer an exciting product and professional service to my customers.
After having received extensive expert training I am able to provide the complete Funky Tents range of marquees and fit out equipment to cater for all events from small parties through to stunning weddings and up to large corporate events and seasonal balls.
