After a successful trial at Ochilview Park in Stenhousemuir, local girl Natasha Franchi earned her place to represent Scotland U14 at the Nations Cup in Barcelona. Team Scotland went through the entire tournament unbeaten and lifted the cup, with Natasha finishing as the tournament’s top goalscorer with 3 goals.

A few weeks ago, Natasha was shortlisted for Scottish Women’s Football Youth Player of the Year and will be heading to Hampden later this month for the SWF awards ceremony.

We are delighted to support Natasha, alongside all her sponsors, with her exciting football journey.

Natasha has a big footballing future ahead of her, with best wishes from everyone at The Astute Group.

Fingers crossed for the men's national team for the result needed tonight to take us to the World Cup 2026 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ⚽️

On the road and on brand!

From enquiry to installation, all within 5 days.

Great to see Porter Pharmacy adding another van to their growing fleet. Their dedication to excellent customer service, quality products, and prompt delivery truly sets the standard towards their continued growth story.

Wishing Andy and Lynne continued success as they keep growing and delivering excellence.

How do you make your brand stand out before you even say a word?

By taking it on the road, literally.

We worked with Grey Events to design, print, and install their new vehicle graphics, and we love the feedback we got from the team.

Pictured here are our Print Manager Chris and Andrew Allan, Owner of Grey Events, with the finished vans.

Best wishes and continued success to the Grey Events team as they continue to grow.

A refreshed look for a respected Scottish brand.

"Branding demands commitment; commitment to continual re-invention” - Sir Richard Branson

For Trade Solutions (Scotland) Ltd, we evolved the logo to reflect better who they are today: trusted, professional, and proudly rooted in Scotland’s soft fruit heritage.

The new design enhances their well-known berry icon, adopts a more vibrant colour palette, and balances the typography for better clarity and confidence. It’s an update that feels familiar, yet unmistakably fresh, honouring their story while positioning the brand for the future.

Pictured: Barry Sellars, Joint Managing Director of The Astute Group, with Brenden, CEO of Trade Solutions (Scotland) Ltd, proudly standing in front of the newly branded interior wall, and it’s good to see how the customised reflective jacket fits nicely on Brenden.

Great work from our creative team. Becky Littlewood, John Doyle, and Babajide Olowookere, ACIM

In the coming days, we will show you their new website, professional photos, interior wallpaper, and exterior signage.

We love what we do!

A refreshed look for Tannadice Trophies & Engraving

From concept to completion, a refresh to the existing logo, allowed us to flow a new design through the internal & externals of the business, finished with installed new-brand shop front signage, that brings it all together.

It’s always rewarding to help local businesses elevate their presence while keeping their heritage at the heart of it.

Pop by their shopfront on East High Street to see the new look in person.
