BACKGROUND

5. Backstage is an extension of my agency team. Always on hand to add value with an
exceptional approach to delivery.
Katie Golding, Source Collective FZLLC

Since our corporate brand guidelines are very strict and we rather keep assignments
in-house, we have experienced a fantastic job with Backstage Design.
Not only is the team very flexible and creative, their turnaround time is remarkably swift and
any short-notice requests are fulfilled instantly.
We only can recommend to work with Backstage Design.

Hashim has that quiet confident efficiency that everyone in our industry recognises and
values when we find it. Sadly we don’t find it often enough.
He brings calm to the chaos, and instills great professionalism in his people. A real asset to
any creative company.
