RAM secures contract with UK's largest property company

RAM ("RAM" or the "Company"), the investor in Digital out of Home ('DOOH') media, communications and Intellectual Property, announces an advertising sales, content production and screen estate management contract win for its subsidiary, RAM Vision Limited ("RAM Vision").

Land Securities, the UK's largest commercial property company has appointed RAM Vision to source and install large format iconic landscape video screens within six of its UK shopping centres: The White Rose Centre in Leeds; The Galleria in Hatfield; The Bridges in Sunderland; The 02 Centre Finchley Road in London; Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth; and The Centre in Livingston. RAM Vision is to manage a five year contract for broadcasting advertising sales, scheduling content and screen management at all six named schemes. These six Land Securities owned centres welcome over 67.5 million customer visits annually, delivering a significant increase to the RAM Vision broadcast estate which is currently approximately 600 million.

RAM Vision will be working closely with both the commercial team at Land Securities' head office in the Strand, London, and the individual management teams at each site location under contract.

Sean Curtis, Head of Business to Business Marketing, Retail said: "Digital advertising creates opportunities for brands to promote their brands in a vibrant medium, interacting with consumers who are highly engaged. We are delighted to be working with RAM to deliver iconic screens to a significant number of our centres"

RAM Vision operates digital out of home (DOOH) media advertising sales and content provision and is the largest landscape screen broadcaster in shopping malls within the UK. The Iconic portfolio is now extended to 29 screens nationwide in major retail destination venues. The contract win is also forecasted to deliver a significant percentage increase to RAM Vision bottom line contribution and enhances the aggregate annual footfall in excess of 670 million.

RAM CEO Richard Prosser comments:

"The contract win by RAM Vision with Land Securities is a significant enhancement to the Company's fast emerging growth in Iconic digital screens in key retail and leisure locations. It is the intent by both parties to be fully installed and screens live in time for the stronger fourth retail trading quarter of this year. The 67.5m additional footfall to the RAM Vision estate is a further statement to outdoor digital advertising market of the company's strategy to enlarge its Iconic screen network and deliver on its pipeline of future contract wins with other major UK Land and Property owner estates. This is a further commercial demonstration of RAM Vision's UK Iconic and Walkway screen network growth within this important and active sector."
