Hungry Tradesmen Get Big Breakfast From HSS

Vote for your work site and get you and your workmates fed for free!

HSS Hire, the national supplier of tool and equipment hire and outsourcing services, today launches its Big Breakfast van – helping to make London construction sites a better place to be on cold and wet winter mornings!

Feeding tradesmen at a different work site in London each day in January, the location of the HSS Big Breakfast van will be entirely based on workers’ votes, collected via a dedicated website www.hssbigbreakfast.com.

The competition will run throughout January and winning entries – sites with the most votes - will see the Big Breakfast van serve up mouthwatering hot bacon and sausage sandwiches with steaming mugs of tea and coffee, for free.

Fiona Perrin, Sales and Marketing Director at HSS Hire said: "This campaign is a bit of fun - inviting builders, construction workers and other tradesmen to rise and shine to a hot and tasty breakfast on us is just a small way of interacting with an important and valued customer group for HSS. And with a different site getting the breakfast van every day in January, there's plenty of scope to bag yourself – and all your workmates - a free breakie on us!

"It also sits very nicely alongside our new HSS Trade Promise which is all about giving customers what they want, when they need it. At HSS we want customers to know they'll get more when they hire from us – more tools in stock, great value, local support and safe and reliable kit delivered when and where they need it. We want our customers to be better equipped in 2013!"

The three simple steps to enter, share and win the Big Breakfast van are:

Enter your work site at HSSbigbreakfast.com before 3pm each day

Share with your work mates on Facebook and Twitter

HSS will call you if the Big Breakfast van is coming to your worksite and you can also check the website to see where it goes

HSS has also made it quicker and easier to hire tool and equipment while out on site and on-the-go in 2013 by introducing a new Smartphone App that can be used in conjunction with HSS's new Hire Guide which features Augmented Reality functionality. Amid full product and service listings – customers will now be able to wave their smartphone over images to ‘scan and hire' for the fastest tool and hire experience yet.
