Hollings takes advantage of social media opportunity

Treat specialist Hollings is now using social media to promote its products to the UK's pet owning consumers.

"Facebook is very powerful these days," said sales and marketing manager Emma Hollings. "It's very easy to use and it seems that every major brand now has its own Facebook page these days.

"We are hoping it will be an ideal opportunity to promote our products and also provide the chance to get feedback from the people who actually use Hollings treats for their dogs."
