.

"RAM Vision is the largest network operator of landscape format DOOH media in the UK shopping malls. The acquisition of BRANDPLAYS large format (3metre by 2metre) interactive projection network will enhance the product offering of RAM Vision to major brands and media advertising agencies who are increasingly interested in interacting and engaging with consumers out of home. No additional employees or office overheads have been taken over as part of the transaction so the acquisition will be cash and profit positive from the first sales on the platform.

The interactive floor projection system is a captivating digital outdoor advertising medium in the heart of the retail environment and combined with the current RAM Vision Iconic and walkway screen network offers a combined weekly footfall of 11 million consumers.
