What it does

Kent Union Trading Limited was incorporated on 20th January 2009 for the provision of management services and marketing activities. During 2019 the company began operating a nursery having taken over operation of this activity from Kent Union and from 1 November 2020, the company took over the retail operations from Kent Union. The marketing activity has established a brand SU Networks who act as a media partner for a number of other Students’ Unions, providing them with Business Development, Marketing and Finance services through managing their advertising and media sales channels. 1 August 2021 saw the Licence Trade and Catering function of Kent Union also transfer to Kent Union Trading Ltd, meaning all commercial services that sit outside Kent Union’s charitable purpose are together in Kent Union Trading Ltd.
