# Graphic Design & Photography in Leicester

Source: https://dijitulmedia.co.uk/locations/leicester/

> Leicester retailers, makers and food firms work with dijitul media on logos, packaging, multilingual print and product photography. Design is done remotely from Mansfield, about an hour up the M1, and photography and video are shot on location in Leicester with travel quoted upfront. Logos start from £150 + VAT and product photos from £25 + VAT per image.

Leicester grew on hosiery, knitwear and footwear, and its clothing and textile trade is still active, often in smaller family-run firms that now design, make and sell online. Fashion sells on photography: garments need consistent white-background shots for marketplaces, detail shots of fabric and stitching, and on-model or flat-lay images for social media. We plan shot lists so every size and colour is covered in one session.

Food manufacturing is a big employer, from snacks to ready meals and specialist South Asian food producers. Walkers has made crisps at Beaumont Leys for decades. Smaller producers need packaging, labels with allergen text that stays legible, sweet box designs for weddings and festivals, and point-of-sale material for shops.

The Golden Mile along Belgrave Road is famous for jewellers, sari shops, restaurants and sweet centres. Many independent businesses across the city publish in more than one language, so we lay out menus, leaflets and signage that combine English with Gujarati, Punjabi, Urdu or other scripts from text you supply, using fonts that render each script properly.

- Clothing and textile makers: product photography, swing tags, lookbooks

Next has its head office at Enderby, Fosse Park is one of the region's largest retail destinations, and Leicestershire sits in the logistics golden triangle, with Magna Park near Lutterworth. The University of Leicester and De Montfort University add students and spin-outs, and Space Park Leicester reflects a strong space science specialism. Design for all of this is done remotely from Mansfield. Shoots are on location in Leicester, with travel added to the quote.
