HUDSON IS NOW ON MOBILE - Get the latest offers - Locate nearby Stores - View your latest transactions - Keep up to date with your hudson account We understand the sensitivities and cultural requirements in the markets that we trade. We are confident in selecting and working with brands and product that well suits these markets. We go one step further by also selecting the right partners with whom to work in each territory to supplement the local advantage that we may need. It goes even deeper than this. Location is key and this is factored into our selection process; the most suitable locations are chosen to carry forward the success of the brands that we represent. For those in the West it’s hard to imagine a minute without the Internet. Some of the markets we operate in do not have full Internet access and indeed, some don’t have any. This results in greater challenges in communicating your brand message but this can also be an advantage if you know how to play it. Hudson knows which are the most effective and appropriate channels and forms of advertising to meet the needs of your message to your customers in these markets. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
