Northern Lights are delighted to award charitable company GloMania as Business of the Month
Northern Lights have offered support and networking facilities to international company GloMania, who are based in Blackpool over the past year to help grow their business.
Alber and Theresa from Blackpool decided that they were going to expand their own business after Theresa suffered head injuries in an ice-skating accident five years ago by going international, “We thought life’s just too short” said Alber. GloMania produces Cosmic Star Ceilings, invisible during the day but magically appear when the lights go out along with business start up kits which have so far enabled over 120 artists to run their own businesses all over the world. GloMania is also a very charitable company and ensure their ProFx artists are too. Their charitable projects include Booth Hall Children’s Hospital in Manchester and Donna’s Dream House in Blackpool.
Alber believes GloMania won the Business of the Month award due to the company’s diversity and innovativeness along with their commitment. “We were shocked and amazed to win; it really means a lot to be recognised by Northern Lights for our hard work. We are continually developing new products at the same time as giving back to the community so we hope this will make us strong candidates in the competition for Business of the Year.”

Northern Lights mentor, Lateef Badat commented on GloMania’s commitment: “After already being nominated as finalists for Biba’s e-business of the year, being commissioned to work on projects in America and not only surviving the current recession but retaining enough profit to support charities, GloMania stood out from the crowd as obvious contenders for our Business of the Month award.”
Alber is extremely grateful for the attention Northern Lights has drawn to GloMania and ultimately helped it to grow. He plans to put the £250 prize money towards the development of a new child and eco friendly paint which will enable GloMania to grow further as one of the most advanced cosmic ceiling companies in the world.
Apart from further business growth, in the future Alber and his wife want to “help more artists start their own businesses and be in a position where they can say that they have made a difference to the community and brought happiness to children around the world.”
