Case Study: Zoology
With so many hair salons out there, you need to do something pretty special to get noticed among the competition.

Zoology does just that on a daily basis, and its sheer brilliance at hairdressing gets the fashion conscious flocking through the salon doors – in both Wanstead and Loughton.
It also wins Zoology a whole host of awards for business excellence, leadership and vision and – of course – hairdressing! These are just some of them:
- American Crew Face off Competition 2011 – Winner
- Schwarzkopf Creative Team Award 2011 - Winner
- Creative Team Competition 2010 – Best Team Runner Up
- Creative Team Competition 2009 – Overall Team Winner
- British Hairdressing Business Awards 2008 – Manager Of the Year Winner
- British Hairdressing Awards 2007 – Manager of the Year Award, Highly Commended
- National Business Awards 2007 – Shortlisted for excellence in customer focus
- Docklands Business Awards 2006 – Award for business excellence
- London Business Awards 2005 – Shortlisted for the best small business
Although Zoology is often under the national spotlight, its roots are very much close to home. Director Mark Mountney tells us why:
“We have a big vision but remain focused on serving our local area. It was important to us, when looking for a new accountant several years ago, to work with a firm who understood our area and, like us, provided a local service accompanied by big ideas.”
Mark found THP thanks to a personal recommendation, and he has been consistently delighted with our approach.
“The service has been absolutely excellent and totally consistent” he says. “An additional bonus is that I don’t have to travel very far to see my accountants – they’re not only always at the end of the phone, but literally round the corner as well!”
