Media Release: Buchanan Galleries appoints Stripe Communications

ONE of Scotland’s leading shopping centres has appointed Stripe Communications to handle its PR.

The appointment will see Stripe handle its communications around key marketing periods in the trading calendar including its autumn/winter 2014 ranges, student event and Christmas.
