TRUCK September 1987
THE TRUCK INTERVIEW
Some say Chris Kelly's pace is too hot to handle. He has built one of Scania's biggest-selling dealers in just four years, and now plans to turn his carefully chosen Midlands site into the UK's first truck parts supermarket. A transport entrepreneur of the '80s, he is professional, innovative and shrewd. He is also one of the best-known and best liked dealers in his area. Jack Semple went to meet him
CHRIS KELLY IS THE SORT OF person who can put the Black Country back on the industrial map. Well-liked and respected, shrewd, hard working and acutely aware of money, he has come from relative obscurity to be one of the most successful truck dealers of the '80s. He aims to be on the Unlisted Securities Market before the end of the decade.
He only got his Scania franchise for the West Midlands in '83, but the business grew so fast that by '86 he had almost the biggest Scania distributorship in Britain, second only to the combined sales of the Scantruck dealer outlets in Purfleet and Heathrow, which are owned by the manufacturer. In the calendar year, Keltruck delivered 385 units.
Scania has reason to be thankful for Kelly's success. Not only has he moved a lot of metal, in stark contrast to his predecessor, but he has bolstered the Scania back-up network in his area, which has the busiest motorway stretches in Europe.
His plan is to develop Keltruck still further to make it an industry showpiece for the '90s. At the same time, the Kelly Group has diversified into other aspects of the industry, including contract haulage, and a clearing house, reversing the common pattern for hauliers to take on heavy truck outlets.
As Keltruck has grown, especially in the past year, it has changed, perhaps by necessity. and several members of staff and some fitters have left. Chris Kelly didn't seek to play down the changes when we spoke to him last month.
It could all have been a bit different if Lloyds of Ludlow, a well-known Welsh border haulier, hadn't been given the Daf outlet in the West Midlands in preference to Chris Kelly. At that stage, his secondhand truck business had not long developed from being just a one-man band.
Chris Kelly already had a firm grounding in trucks. He left school at 15 for an apprenticeship at Atwoods, which in the '60s was well-known for selling high-class cars, but also Bedford trucks. After five years in the workshop he moved across into service reception instead. 'I quite liked that. It was a means of leaving the shop floor.'
Ryland Group, which he joined in the early '70s, gave him a strong background in dealer management, first at Oldhill Motors, a Seddon dealer, then at head office, where he was given a job in administration by director Gordon Cox. 'They had an excellent group of people,' he said. The group was progressive. and gave good training in discipline and management control systems. 'Ryland was very much the exception.'
In '75, he branched out on his own, selling used trucks from an office lent by a local haulier, and using a corporation car park to keep the trucks. The business became better known when he moved to Neachells Lane, a popular road for trucks delivering to steel foundries and stockholders, where he could hardly fail to be noticed. 'I had an aptitude and ability to seek out secondhand trucks,' he said.
In those days, many of the trucks were Dafs, including 20 on hire operations, and he applied, unsuccessfully, for a Daf distributorship. In '80, he moved to a bigger, five acre site at Wolverhampton. Then the recession hit.
'It was just as if somebody had cut the telephone wires. Interest rates shot up from 12percent to 18percent, very, very quickly.' I had £400,000 of stock, which today would be worth £1.5 million. A late truck then would cost £10,000. Now, it costs up to £30.000.'
Chris Kelly developed a contract hire business in the early '80s, partly as a tax mitigation, and partly to develop a second, peripheral business. He had been making steady progress in building the business and profit, but it was almost entirely dependent on him being available all the time. Apart from himself, there was only a part-time office girl and a driver. 'I was off sick for three weeks and the place virtually ground to a standstill.'
By '82, he was buying Scanias for contract hire, and rental, and retailing a lot of used Scanias. In '82, the manufacturer, looking to replace its West Midlands dealer, called. At the time, Kelly also had around 100 trailers on hire. But he decided to take the plunge with Scania.
To raise funds. he auctioned off most of his trucks and all the trailers. A recession-hit local haulier, J & S Hemmings, which had a history going back to the horse and cart days, was also wanting to sell up, and the two combined their fleets into a single auction, handled by CMA from Leeds. Almost the whole lot was sold off.
Keltruck was the first new name on the Scania franchise network to replace a dealer (although Scania had bought out Scantruck), but Kelly was determined to break the mould in other ways, too. Many truck distributors had been sited up back streets, miles away from industrialised areas. 'I thought the right and logical place was next to the largest population and concentration of industrial manufacturing, and if possible couple this with a motorway.'
In fact Kelly's site, the old Corona typewriter works in West Bromwich, lies next to the M5, just short of the intersection with the M6. He got it at an ideal time, when industry in the Black Country was at a low level.
Being next to a motorway is not unique, and several dealers have moved to such sites in recent years. But you can't miss Keltruck from the M5. ‘Talk to truck drivers and ask them to name a distributor they know in the Midlands, and they're likely to say Keltruck. That to me has got to be a good thing.'
While Keltruck looks well positioned from the outside, internal management holds the key to success, he said. A lot of dealerships have gone under 'through lack of control systems within the business and lack of management awareness.'
He believes in paying high salaries. 'It's a very, very tough business, and you've got to have very good people.' Low salaries increasingly are a thing of the past now, he said.
Kelly has been almost as valuable to Scania as the maker has been to him. His tidy office is mirrored in the workshop and the yard
That's not to say they don't work for their money. Kelly is an entrepreneur who gives it all he's got, and he demands a lot from his staff. And he stated that he is not the sort of managing director of a company who allows a man to stay in a job if he's not performing as required.
Kelly said he'd had to learn how to run a bigger company. 'I've had to learn how to delegate and set guidelines and parameters to competent people.' He's been to three management courses at Ashridge College, arranged by Scania for dealer principles, and found them valuable. 'I wouldn't spend two-and-a-half days there if it was just a social gathering.’
Within the company, Kelly has used the Industrial Society in recent months as part of a programme aimed at building a management team. The IS was recommended by Kelly's brother-in-law, who is company secretary with a large group. Late last year he had the whole management team, including wives and children, at a weekend course organised by the IS, at a big West Midlands hotel. 'It gave the wives more of an appreciation of the hours people have to work in this industry.
'Operators of trucks are getting more and more demanding. Just like Arthur Scargill is trying to fend off six-day rota working, we have to work over seven days.' Management rotas have to take account of that, he said. (Keltruck has five breakdown vans, and a parts back-up stock which is highly regarded among Scania users in the Midlands.)
Kelly explained the IS involvement: 'It's just like building a football team. And we're trying to counter poaching.' At the moment there's a situation in the business of 'all change' when the whistle blows', Kelly said. 'The truck industry has failed to train younger people from within. We're looking for university graduates in business management or engineering to join us as management trainees.'
When Kelly takes his company onto the USM. he'll be offering employees shares in the enterprise. 'Share participation has been a great success for the NFC. I hope to do something similar, in a much smaller way.'
The team does not look the same as it did last year, as at least three managers have left the group, to join or set up a new company. Without being drawn on individual cases, Kelly acknowledges the departures. The changes are a consequence of moving from a smaller company to a larger firm. he said.
In the workshop it is no longer possible for customers simply to wander in and chat to individual fitters, which some customers had been used to, but which is impracticable in a large workshop. Tools tend to go ·missing, too, he added.
Kelly has adopted much of the current thinking on fitters. Not all are realistically able to be trained to do every job on a truck, and that should be recognised, he said. Changes in the workshop are aimed at making it more efficient. It's more formal, certainly, but should also prove more flexible and reliable for the truck operator.
The belt and braces approach is now clearly out at Keltruck, if it was ever in. Kelly wages war on clutter, and demands clarity at all times. In the workshop he has three men employed solely to keep the place clean and tidy. Trucks parked at the dealership ready to go out to customers are parked in immaculate rows, on Kelly's insistence.
But it is his office which most clearly shows the Chris Kelly style. Sited at an extreme corner of the main building, the room housed the water storage tank in the days when the place was a typewriter factory with a sprinkler system to put out fires.
When you go in, you can't see a desk. His work station is behind a partition, and is a fairly narrow shelf which of necessity prevents a build -up of paperwork. 'This way I can keep my own bits and pieces out of sight, and no-one can see the clutter. (By any normal standards, there is none.)
'In this trade there's a lot of good upside-down readers', he quipped. If anyone comes in to see him, they meet over a businesslike table, although there are leather armchairs, too.
Some trucks were ready for August 1 registration, but not as many as last year, as supply fell frustratingly behind demand
A couple of impressionist prints by Lavery are on the wall. They're Roger Stevens' taste,' (group marketing manager) he said.
Kelly plans to· put in similar work stations for his managers. 'It's the trend at the minute, but I think it's very good.' It gives people peace to concentrate on the job, he said.
Kelly's next development at West Bromwich will be a major redevelopment of the site, which will bring the supermarket concept to the UK truck industry, by the end of '88. There will be a complete range of t ruck maintenance and repair services on site, with facilities for drivers collecting, delivering, or waiting for a truck.
But most innovative of all, will be a parts 'supermarket', where customers will literally be able to pick parts off shelves. Keltruck aims not only to have a full Scania range, but trailer parts, and other components and accessories. He won't be following the Multipart line, though, and offering parts for Scania's competitor marques.
'There are quite a few places like that in the States, but there are only two or three in Europe, and there are none in Britain.'
Before that, Keltruck will open an out let in Stoke-on-Trent, to compete with other heavy truck dealers in the area. The site will be open by the end of the year, he said.
The Ashridge courses help to give a vision of where the industry is going, and where a dealer's business can fit in to it, Kelly said. He'll take the group onto the USM to enjoy the benefits he's worked for, and to raise cash to expand the business both internally and through acquisition.
So Kelly will be keeping an eye out for business opportunities associated with trucks. Tm not into property.' Business development has already taken him back into contract haulage, which he said has been a natural progression from truck contract hire, and which in turn was developed from truck retailing.
He has bought several haulage firms, in one case to turn round a traditional general haulage operation running older lorries to a new, streamlined firm, working on contract.
'I like the word contract,' he said, 'it's got some future to it. It means the work isn't here today, gone tomorrow.
'The traditional market for purchasing of trucks is declining substantially,' he said. Operators are increasingly looking for fixed prices. A new breed of businessman is coming into haulage, and looking carefully at the cost of use of trucks.
Trucks in future will be used more intensively than they have been, and they'll be cut up earlier, to avoid expensive breakdowns. Kelly has changed his views on extensive rebuilding of trucks, which has been given a boost by tax changes. The practice is common in the States, under the 'glider kit' system.
'I now believe that people haven't got the time,' he said. But it could vary from one part of the country to another. There's a lot of truck expertise available in Yorkshire and Lancashire at reasonable cost, for example.
'There's never been a better time to buy new and trade-in than now,' he said, adding: 'We're the best buyers for a clean used Scania.'
Kelly's biggest problem this year has been a shortage of trucks to sell, both second-hand and new. 'We're sold through now until September production,' he winced, talking to us in early July.
One area Kelly is not at all keen to attack again is spot rental of trailers. They're too much trouble. There's too much potential accident damage, unless they're on contract hire. And the trailers can go through a £1400 set of tyres in anything from six months to 12 months.' Also, tri-axle trailers rip off tyres much more than on tandem trailers.
While Chris Kelly is widely known to have a good nose for business, his nose itself is well known, too. The scar running across the bridge results from an exploding battery, in the early days of the second-hand business. 'I was charging up two 12V batteries overnight. When I went down to the yard at six o'clock the next morning to get the truck ready for a customer, I failed to switch the power off, and the battery exploded. It blew me back 10ft, and blew a hole in the workshop roof.'
Fortunately, he got blown against the wall right beside a tap, and was able to wash out his eyes.
The accident had its positive side. 'I used to make frequent trips to Scotland looking for used trucks. The scar was a useful means of identification for Scotsmen who weren't quite sure of my credit worthiness.'
Scotland has also made Chris Kelly teetotal. He admits, over a Perrier water, to once having bought a few rust buckets on the strength of some stiff whiskies at Glasgow airport.
Kelly's pace has been hectic. So much so that he's 'only had time' to drive 500miles in one of his prized possessions, a 4.2 E-type roadster that's done only 20,000miles (true).
He has built not only one of the most successful dealerships of the decade, but done so without the backing of one of the large groups which own so many truck outlets.
No longer a one-man-band, he is now boss of a multi-million business which has changed in character since it was set up just a few years ago. Not everyone agrees with or likes the changes at present. But Kelly is driving the business with commitment and imagination, and most people in the Midlands want to see him succeed.
Kelly demands neat parking. E-type is immaculate, but Kelly's pace is too hot – he doesn't have time to drive it

Miracle of the child
God bought you out of your mothers womb knowing nothing at all …..
www.scribd.com/doc/18543292/Harun-Yahya-Islam-Miracle-of-...
"Each child is born in a state of "pure monotheism", then his parents make him a Jew, Christian or another religion” (Bukhari)
www.thelastingmiracle.com/eng/article.aspx?id=1&cat=1
According to this statement of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), everyone enters this world with the basic knowledge of the oneness of God and the difference between right and wrong. Of course after being born innocent, we are all then subject to the influence of our family and society at large. If a child is born to non-Muslim parents then it can be assumed that they will raise their child according to their own system of belief. The child has no say in the matter until they reach the age of discernment. However, all humans are born with the instinctive attachment to God without the influence of doctrine. This spirituality draws them closer to the Creator of this World. For many, this inclination opens their eyes and causes them to reflect upon the validity of their own beliefs. It also empowers them to ask questions and seek knowledge to ensure that they are following the correct path of righteousness.
The right to choose our own religion is the most powerful choice any of us can make. Some humans choose to believe and worship in a certain manner because that is what they saw their parents doing. Others turn down the misguided path of Atheism, perhaps, because they have become disillusioned with religion altogether or because a smooth-talking scientist caught their attention with their assertions that this World merely evolved by chance. Even a child could make an argument to refute this claim that has taken, so-called, scientists years to formulate. For example, if a child indiscriminately throws several building blocks into the air, the blocks land randomly to the floor. The blocks don’t land in the formation of a perfectly stacked building! Neither do they land in any form whatsoever. The same thing goes for the universe. We see a vast system of complex organization, especially here on the Earth. Everything is explicitly planned and structured according to a plan. So, who planned it all?
The Planner
The answer to who planned this Universe and everything in it can be found in your own heart. Why does your heart beat? If you ask a Scientist he will say that it is electricity from your brain. But where did that electricity come from? Are you plugged into something? How do our bodies function at all? The stomach digests food more efficiently than any manmade machine ever could. Everything that exists, whether it is the human body or the stars in the sky, was intelligently designed by the command of the Most Wise and Gracious Creator.
The Reality
In His infinite Love, Compassion and Beneficence, God Almighty sent Prophets (pbut) to guide humanity to live a spiritual life of worship and piety towards others. He supported His Prophets (pbut) with miracles to shake man out of his slumber and open his eyes to their Lord. These miracles have been recorded in all the books of God and prove that there is a Master Creator who not only created this Universe but has complete control over it. God created the Laws of Nature and can change them at will.
Seekers of truth often reach a point of confusion upon realizing that believers of every religion, sect or philosophy all claim to have the one and only correct ideology. For those who believe in God there are only three possibilities:
-Everyone is right.
-Everyone is wrong.
-Only one is right and the rest are following religions that have been tainted by the hands of man.
However, everyone cannot be right since each religion differs from the other in their basic foundations. Every religion views the nature of God and how we relate to Him differently. Similarly, everyone cannot be wrong. Many people believe that all religions are wrong because of the evils of man who happened to claim religion. As a result, many humans have followed a path of Atheism or left it up to themselves to determine who Allah is and how He should be worshipped. That’s why God sent Muhammad (pbuh) with the Qur’an as the last chance for mankind to get it right and worship the One and Only God who has no partner in His divinity or dominion. Even critics of Islam have no choice but to concede to the fact that the Holy Quran is the only Scripture that has not been tampered with and is in agreement with modern science.
God Almighty has provided us with guidance to lighten our path and lead us back to Him. We innately lack the knowledge and wisdom to hold such a responsibility by ourselves. God is most perfectly Just. He has given us a chance to make our lives full of purpose during our time on Earth so that we can be judged fairly on the Day of Judgment.
The reality is that only one religion can be right. Indeed God sent Prophets to all people throughout the ages. It was the responsibility of religious leaders to preserve the scriptures and apply their laws from Prophet to Prophet and nation-to-nation. No doubt they failed. Muslims believe that God revealed the same religion to each Prophet. That religion was Islam, which means to submit to the Will of God and seeking His Forgiveness in sincere repentance when coming up short.
Other religions are called by different names like Judaism and Christianity. However, these names are manmade labels. In the Bible, for example, there is not an instance where Jesus (pbuh) refers to his religion as ‘Christianity’. Islam means to live in submission to the One and only God. I ask the sincere reader who believes in Prophets, Did those Prophets teach anything else but living a life seeking to please God in submission to His will? Of course they did. The Holy Qur’an repetitively states that the Prophets called mankind to Islam.
Clearing your Prejudices
For seekers of the truth, when choosing your own religion consider these points:
-God gave us the ability and intellect to make this crucial decision, hence it is our decision and we don't need our parents, family, or society to make it for us.
-God did not leave us to go astray without any guidance. Indeed, He sent us Prophets (pbut) with scriptures to show us the right path. The proof of this is in the various miracles performed by these Prophets (pbut), which have been recorded throughout time.
-Seeking the pure message of God is vital as all humans will be called to account for their chosen faith and actions in life, which will inevitably determine thier eternity.
-One can only make a fair rational decision in seeking the right religion if emotions and prejudices, which often blind one to the truth, are put aside.
Is Islam Right for You?
You may have never thought that one day you would be able to change the religion your parents taught you about. Remember that nothing is set in stone and you have a right to believe as you see fit. When thinking about Islam for your religion, consider these facts about it:
* Islam is consistent with logic and rational thinking.
* Islam opens the door for anyone to challenge its authenticity. It also provokes you and shows you how to challenge it, that you may achieve certainty in it.
* Islam provides the needed answers for all important and fundamental questions concerning God, the purpose of life, and the Hereafter.
* Islam is supported by contemporary miracles and proofs. For example, the Holy Quran that was revealed 1,400 years ago reveals innumerable miracles that are 100% compatible with recently established science. Read "The Bible, the Quran, and Science" by Maurice Bucaille who accepted Islam after researching for this book.
* Islam combines the awareness of the Hereafter with our daily lives making a strong bond between the two through our sense of accountability.
* Islam is more than a "religion" in common terminology. It truly is a comprehensive system of life with a detailed law and ethical system. It establishes systems for worship, family living, government, politics, education, economics and social relations.
* Islam is based on a established system of law founded on authentic texts (statements of God and His messenger). It is not based upon human emotion, philosophies or religious hierarchies that have no solid foundation in authentic revelation.
* Islam encourages people to seek knowledge and contribute to the world.
* Islam provides true equality, solving the age-old problems of race and gender. Islam treats all believers as equals irrespective of race, gender, nationality, or social status.
The choice is yours to make. Don’t rely on what others say or be afraid to forge your own path. Take a chance read through our website and get an English translation of the Holy Qur’an to truly discover what Islam is really all about!

On the pulse
By Michael Barnett
In developed countries, populations are ageing and individuals are living with medical conditions for longer. This trend is creating a market for new kinds of healthcare services.
Many consumer and business brands are moving into the healthcare sector to take advantage of the opportunities. Some are adapting their existing technology and expertise to meet demand for innovations in health; others are seeking to change the way healthcare is delivered.
Companies better known for selling anything from cars to mobile phone contracts are now seeking to become known as providers of medical services and products. Ford, for example, is bringing health technology to its cars with the development of an electrocardiogram (ECG) seat that measures the heart rate of the driver without the need to wear any additional monitoring equipment.

Pim van der Jagt, managing director of the Ford Research Centre in Aachen, Germany, says this innovation was a strategic business decision made on the basis of substantial market research. “Health and wellness is the new area where people will spend a lot of money and have a lot of interest,” he says (see Q&A, below).
Van der Jagt notes that consumers’ lives are becoming busier, while Ford’s customers are getting older. The ECG seat aims to meet a very real demand for a product that would constantly check the health of the driver without taking time out of the person’s day to visit a doctor.
“A very large percentage of our customers are going to be above 65. Data shows that among people above 65 there is a significant percentage with some form of heart problem. These people want to monitor their heart rate and check they are in good condition,” says van der Jagt.
The seat is not yet on production lines, but should it be approved for installation in Ford’s cars, data would be collected by the vehicles using the car’s Sync entertainment system and transmitted wirelessly over the internet to a third-party organisation.
Exactly what would then be done with the information is a matter still under consideration, along with other technical details that still need to be worked out. Van der Jagt says Ford is unlikely to provide real-time feedback to the driver. “If he is going full speed on the autobahn, you do not want to tell him he should go to the nearest hospital,” he says.
Meanwhile, Microsoft’s Xbox Kinect motion capture gaming device, usually part of a family’s video game entertainment system, is being used by surgeons at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto. The motion sensor technology allows doctors to use physical gestures to switch between medical images on a screen without leaving the sterile area of the operating room and scrub in again.
The American Optometric Association has also suggested that Nintendo’s 3DS portable games console and other 3D viewing technology could help to diagnose problems in the vision of young people.
As well as creating new products or repurposing existing ones with new medical applications, some consumer brands are repositioning themselves as providers of comprehensive health services.
O2 last year launched O2 Health (see case study, below), while Virgin paid £4m for a 75% stake in Assura Medical in March 2010, 18 months after pulling out of plans to open its own primary care centre in Swindon. Both companies work in partnership with the NHS to deliver care services and products both to the industry and directly to patients.
According to Gaurav Batra, corporate development director of Virgin Management, which determines the business strategy of Virgin Group, the new opportunities for consumer-driven brands exist because patients have new priorities in what they seek from their healthcare providers. The current political climate, which aims to decentralise NHS healthcare, also supports this.
Batra says: “In terms of policy and how we as a society are evolving, people want to take greater control over their healthcare. That means they want more information about it. It means they want to exercise greater choice about what their treatment is, who is going to treat them, where, how and when.”
He adds that companies such as Virgin can bring experience in customer service into the NHS, an organisation that he claims has been poor at providing this. The general aims of Virgin’s involvement in health are to ensure this customer-centric ethos improves patient care, shortens waiting times, brings care closer to home and saves taxpayers money.
Healthcare professionals may need convincing of this, if the opposition of some medical associations to the government’s NHS reforms is any indication. But O2 Health managing director Keith Nurcombe expects the splitting up of some NHS services to pick up pace, allowing more private companies and consumer brands to position themselves as healthcare providers.
As with Virgin’s Assura business, all of O2 Health’s marketing is currently targeted at medical professionals. In the second half of 2011, however, it will launch its first consumer-facing campaign to accompany the introduction of a new mobile alternative to the panic buttons given to frail people in their homes.
Private companies have been involved in delivering services within the UK health industry for many years, but this could mark the beginning of their rise to prominence as recognisable consumer brands.
Virgin, which already has a health incentives business in the US called Virgin Health Miles, is building its profile among medical professionals in the UK and Batra says that “over a period of time we will see a greater role for a brand director at the patient interface”, although no decision has yet been taken to rebrand Assura Medical under the Virgin banner.
He explains: “I think the time will come when the Virgin brand means as much as the Assura brand does today to those various groups. That will be the right time to go.”
While Virgin’s Batra and O2 Health’s Nurcombe are clear on the motives for stretching their brands into new areas, it might take longer for British consumers to grasp the concept. Both would have to overcome the unfamiliarity in healthcare of consumer brands better known for telecoms or transatlantic flights.
Technology company HP, which is the largest IT provider in the healthcare sector worldwide according to director of global health Paul Ellingstad, prefers not to draw patients’ attention to its branding. “We are not displacing providers today. We are working with and enabling the healthcare providers,” he says.
HP’s marketing is directed towards communicating its use of technology in order to solve medical problems. Indeed, prior technological expertise is an area common to nearly all of the brands newly exploring health and wellness. It is also one where there is perhaps a natural basis for marketing healthcare brand extensions to consumers.
Van der Jagt says Ford, for example, already employs medical doctors for research to aid its ergonomic design, making sure its cars are comfortable and easy to use. So the expertise already exists in the company to explore other health-related applications for its technology. The ECG seat is just one of many developments to come about in this way, he says.
Similarly, O2 Health makes significant use of the mother brand’s telecoms experience. It has recently tested a system in the Western Isles of Scotland that allows patients to have remote consultations with a GP rather than a hospital, which might be a boat or plane journey away.
Called Side by Side, the video-link system allows the consultant to show the patient information such as MRI scans, X-rays, blood tests and whiteboard diagrams that can be drawn on the screen. O2 Health’s Nurcombe says: “It is obviously a much better service for the patient because they do not have to travel so far. It is much more efficient for the NHS because the consultant’s time is better used. Ultimately, it delivers a significantly lower cost of care.”
Using technology to cut the costs of delivering healthcare is a growing area. Forty-two per cent of chief information officers in hospitals across North America, Europe and Australia expect to spend more on IT this year than last, compared with only 17% who expect a drop, according to consultancy Ovum.
Brands can also get involved in this world by helping consumers or organisations take more control of their health-related data through technology. One new company started for this purpose is Massive Health. The San Francisco start-up raised $2.25m (£1.35m) from venture capital in February, and intends to launch mobile apps that update consumers’ health data in real time. The model can be compared to the Nike+ iPhone app, which records data associated with joggers’ running routes, and Google Health, which acts as an online health record for users in the US.
Massive Health co-founder Aza Raskin, previously a developer for Mozilla’s Firefox web browser, says he wants the company to be “the Apple of healthcare”. Its apps will enable diabetics, for example, to monitor their condition with feedback on data entered. As a result, Raskin says, they will provide information to help patients live healthily, infrastructure for which is currently lacking in the medical profession.
“If you are going to your doctor once every six months or every year, it does not really tell you about a problem you are having that was caused by what you had for lunch three days ago. The real problem with health is not that you do not care, it is that your body does not give you the kind of feedback that you need to make decisions. Technology can start adding a feedback loop, so you see the effect immediately,” says Raskin.
While technology at the leading edge is opening up markets in the developed world, comparatively low-tech products are furthering healthcare in poorer countries. Simply establishing an internet connection in areas that have never had one before can have profound impacts on doctors’ ability to save lives. Brands are participating in this both through charities and their own business initiatives.
British charity Computer Aid takes old IT equipment from businesses and puts it to use in telehealth applications in remote parts of Africa. One product, the ZubaBox, consists of an old shipping container filled with monitors and an internet-enabled computer powered by solar panels. Corporate sponsors can put their name on the side, pick the destination from a list of projects and send volunteers (see Q&A, below).
One of the three ZubaBoxes so far sent out was received by Macha Works, a development organisation in the isolated and rural area of Macha in Zambia. According to chief executive Fred Mweetwa, there have been economic and social benefits to the connection with larger towns that the region’s health professionals now enjoy. For one thing, more doctors are encouraged to stay.
“Since the introduction of the internet in Macha and the surrounding areas in Zambia, a lot of lives have been saved. Communication has been a lot easier between and among health experts,” says Mweetwa.
HP has undertaken similar telehealth initiatives in Africa, not just as a charitable cause but as part of its social innovation division, which director of global health Paul Ellingstad says marries its social and business objectives. For example, HP’s Palm Pre 2 smartphones are being used by Botswana’s Ministry of Health to collect geographically tagged data on malaria outbreaks. Coupled with cloud-based analytical tools, the government can now respond to patterns of infection in hours rather than weeks, as was the case when paper-based notes were taken. After an initial one-year pilot, HP plans to develop a cloud-based health services package for consumers in Botswana.
Ellingstad says: “There are clearly commercial opportunities for HP and other companies in driving this tech transformation in the sector. But at the same time, by virtue of where the global health sector stands, and the use or lack of use of technology, there is also an enormous opportunity from the social impact side to see significant improvement in health outcomes by doing very fundamental tech implementation.”
In both the developed and developing world, new business models in health and wellness are coming into existence at an increasing rate. While the move by consumer brands into unfamiliar areas might initially seem unlikely, the technology and customer-centric ethos of these companies could shake up the global healthcare market.
While many companies might never have considered how their brands could help keep people well, it might be time to start doing so. The strategy could have extreme health benefits for their bottom line.

Holy Trinity Church
Dominican Republic, with St . Jack at the helm, came to Krakow to Bologna in 1222. He brought the Cracow bishop Iwo Odrowąż who gave the Dominicans partly wood, partly brick parish church. Trinity, moving to a new parish church of St Mary, March 12, 1223, the church was consecrated .
New Gothic church and monastery of the Dominicans began to rise after the Tartar invasion in 1241. Originally it was a three-aisled hall, which was then, at the turn of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, the basilica was rebuilt.

It protected the Gothic, the fourteenth-century portal of the main entrance, which was renovated in 1893 Among other things, lists the number of broken fragments of stone.
The end of the glory of the church put a terrible fire Krakow in 1850. It burned the whole interior with the exception of some of the chapels of the nave vault collapsed. Immediately after the fire started a comprehensive reconstruction of the temple. Construction lasted between 1850-1884 , and guided by the architect Theophilus Żebrawski. Blown walls were so weak that they had to dismantle part of the imminent collapse of the facade. After joining the reconstruction, it turned out that even the lower parts of the walls and pillars are too damaged to be able to carry the weight of the new vault. Therefore temporarily propped up with wooden beams and pillars of pressed metal rims. In the years 1853-1854 the rate of recovery was very slow, but such managed to bring the new stained glass windows by German artist Hübner The following year, construction was resumed, supporting silhouetted walls and covering them with arches supported on pillars of brick, stone interleaved only. After removing the props from under the arches of the nave vaults in the morning, April 12, 1855, a portion of the vault and the walls collapsed, damaging a neighboring house. This catastrophe building in Kraków moved public opinion. Especially criticized austerity policies in the selection of materials. In order to ensure adequate control was established in 1856 by a special committee conservation. After collecting the necessary funds and uprzątnięciu debris, only in 1858 began to laying new foundations for the pillars. Three years later roofed aisles, and in 1863 - the main nave. Basic work on the reconstruction was completed in 1872 . As a result, the appearance of the temple has changed considerably, which was criticized by the artistic community. Especially firmly decided to include sculptor Edward Stehlik. Later, many attacks also met Francis activity prior Pavoni who has pseudogotyckich interior alterations, furnishings and architectural details of the church. At the present time a high altar, choir stalls and confessionals. After the restoration, in 1884, the church was consecrated .

Demel is one of the most famous Viennese pastry at the carbon (cabbage) market (Kohlmarkt) 14 in the first Viennese district Innere Stadt. Demel was a k.u.k. Hofzuckerbäcker and runs this item today in public.
History
1778 came the of Wurttemberg stemming confectioner Ludwig Dehne to Vienna. 1786, he founded his pastry shot at the place of St. Michael. Dehne died in 1799 of tuberculosis. His widow then married the confectioner Gottlieb Wohlfahrt. In 1813 they bought the house in St. Michael's Square 14. Despite numerous innovations such as frozen the company's finances could not be rehabilitated. After the death of Gottlieb Wohlfahrt in 1826 the widow and her son from her first marriage August Dehne succeeded but the economic boom. August Dehne managed to great wealth, he invested in land. As the son of August Dehne struck another career as a lawyer, Dehne sold the confectionery in 1857 to his first mate Christoph Demel.
Demel also had success in the continuation of the company and established it to a Viennese institution. After the death of Christoph Demel in 1867 his sons Joseph and Charles took over the business, which is why it since "Christoph Demel 's Söhne" means. On request Demel received 1874 the Hoflieferantentitel (the titel as purveyor to the court). The proximity to the Imperial Palace directly opposite made business more profitable. The Hofburg borrowed from Demel occasionally staff and tableware for special occasions such as proms and parties. Recent developments in the art of confectionery were brought from Paris. Trained at Demel, professionals quickly found employment.
1888 Old Burgtheater was demolished at Michael's place and transformed the place. Demel had to move out of the house and he moved to the Kohlmarkt 14. The new store inside was equipped inside with high costs by purveyor to the court Portois & Fix. The interior is decorated in the style of Neo-Rococo with mahogany wood and mirrors. Regulars were members of the Viennese court as Empress Elisabeth, and other prominent members of the Vienna society of the time, the actress Katharina Schratt and Princess Pauline von Metternich. A peculiarity of Demel from the time of the monarchy is that the always female attendance, which originally was recruited from monastic students, is dressed in a black costume with a white apron. They are called Demelinerinnen and address the guest traditionally in a special "Demel German", which is a polite form of the third person plural, omitting the personal salutation and with questions such as "elected Have you?" or "want to eat?" was known.
After the death of Joseph and Carl Demel took over Carl's widow Maria in 1891 the management. She also received the k.u.k. Hoflieferantentitel. From 1911 to 1917 led Carl Demel (junior) the business and then his sister Anna Demel (4 March 1872 in Vienna - November 8, 1956 ibid ; born Siding). Under her leadership, the boxes and packaging were developed by the Wiener Werkstätte. Josef Hoffmann established in 1932 because of a contract the connection of the artist Friedrich Ludwig Berzeviczy-Pallavicini to Anna Demel. The design of the shop windows at that time was an important means of expression of the shops and there were discussions to whether they should be called visual or storefront (Seh- or Schaufenster - display window or look window). While under the Sehfenster (shop window) an informative presentation of goods was understood, the goods should be enhanced by staging the showcase. From 1933 until his emigration in 1938 took over Berzeviczy-Pallavicini the window dressing of Demel and married in 1936 Klara Demel, the adopted niece of Anna Demel.
During the Nazi regime in Austria the confectioner Demel got privileges from the district leadership because of its reputation. Baldur von Schirach and his wife took the confectioner under their personal protection, there were special allocations of gastronomic specialties from abroad in order to continue to survive. But while the two sat in the guest room and consumed cakes, provided the Demelinerinnen in a hallway between the kitchen and toilet political persecutws, so-called U-Boats. Those here were also hearing illegal radio stations and they discussed the latest news.
1952 Anna Demel was the first woman after the war to be awarded the title Kommerzialrat. She died in 1956. Klara Demel took over the management of the bakery. Berzeviczy-Pallavicini, who lived in the United States until then returned to Vienna. After Clara's death on 19 April 1965, he carried on the pastry. During his time at Demel he established the tradition to make from showpieces of the sugar and chocolate craft extravagant neo-baroque productions. Baron Berzeviczy sold the business in 1972 for economic reasons to the concealed appearing Udo Proksch, who established in 1973 in the first floor rooms for the Club 45; also Defence Minister Karl Lütgendorf had his own salon. After Proksch was arrested in 1989 in connection with the Lucona scandal, he sold Demel to the non-industry German entrepreneur Günter Wichmann. 1993 it came to insolvency. Raiffeisen Bank Vienna as principal creditor, acquired the property in 1994 from the bankrupt company to initially continue itself the traditional Viennese company through a subsidiary. In the process of the renovation in March 1995 on the fourth floor were mura painting from the 18th century exposed and the baroque courtyard covered by a glass construction which since the re-opening on 18 April 1996 can be used as Schanigarten (pavement café) or conservatory.
In 2002 the catering company Do & Co took over the Demel. The company was awarded with the "Golden Coffee Bean " of Jacobs coffee in 1999. Demel now has additional locations in Salzburg and New York.

Demel chocolate products
One of the most famous specialty of the house is " Demel's Sachertorte" . The world-famous Sachertorte was invented by Franz Sacher, but completed only in its today known form by his son Eduard Sacher while training in Demel. After a 1938 out of court enclosed process occurred after the Second World War a till 1965 during dispute between Demel and the Sacher Hotel: The hotel insisted on its naming rights, Demel, however, could pointing out already since the invention of the "Original Sacher" called pie "having used the denomination". Demel had after the death of Anna Sacher in 1930, under defined conditions, the generation and distribution rights for "Eduard-Sacher-Torte" received. The dispute was settled in favor of the Hotel Sacher and the Demelsche cake is today, "Demel 's Sachertorte" and is still made by hand. While a layer of apricot jam under the chocolate icing and another in the center of the cake can be found in the "Original Sacher-Torte", is in "Demel 's Sachertorte " the layer in the middle omitted.
Besides the Sachertorte helped another specialty the pastry to world fame: the original gingerbread figures whose modeling came from the collection of Count Johann Nepomuk Graf Wilczek on Castle Kreuzenstein. Then there are the Demel cake (almond-orange mass with blackcurrant jam, marzipan and chocolate coating), Anna Torte, Dobos cake, cake trays, Russian Punch Cake, Esterházy cake, apple strudel and other confectionary specialties. Popular with many tourists are the candied violets with which Demel earlier supplied the imperial court and they allegedly have been the Lieblingsnaschereien (favorite candies) of Empress Elisabeth ("Sisi"). Rooms in the upper floors as the Pictures Room, Gold Room and the Silver rooms are rented for events. In addition to the pastry shop Demel operates, as it did at the time of the monarchy, a catering service, after the re-opening in 1996 as well as storage, shipping and packaging was desettled in the 22nd District of Vienna. Demel is also responsible for the catering at Niki Aviation.
