Evoke Creative has acquired Liverpool-based app design and development agency Apposing Ltd as part of its expansion strategy.
Wirral-based Evoke is a leading specialist in kiosk, digital signage and interactive solutions for the retail, hospitality and public sectors.
Under the agreement, Apposing will continue to operate as an individual brand from its city centre creative studio, while strengthening Evoke’s solution offering, adding in-house mobile app and additional user interface development resource to its suite of solutions.
The move will enable Evoke to ‘close the loop’ on its compelling offering to its customers, with mobile acting as the final piece in its full-service, omni-channel offering.
Adding this capability perfectly complements the existing expertise, which includes the design, development and manufacture of self-service order and check out kiosks, LED video walls, digital signage, and interactive software solutions.

Neil Clark CEO and Dean Ward CTO, co-founders at Evoke, which is backed by BGF, commented: “We’re delighted to welcome Apposing to the Evoke Group. When shortlisting candidates for acquisition, Apposing stood out clearly as leaders and innovators in their thinking, creativity and technical ability.
“We can’t wait to begin a progressive program of incorporating their skillset into our overall offering to help our clients sell more to their customers.
“As more and more businesses look towards omni-channel retail as a means of gaining traction in a highly competitive marketplace, we believe that we have a unique opportunity to blend the ‘in-store and in-pocket’ experiences to help create a seamless customer experience and enhance the way in which consumers interact with the brands they love – whether that’s in store or online.”
Apposing was launched 10 years ago by Managing Director, Dave Brown, and has become a leading app design and development company, working alongside the likes of Footasylum, Nando’s, McDonald’s and Liverpool FC.
He said: “This is a really exciting development in the Apposing growth journey, providing us with the ability to scale our activities and work with an expanding list of new clients. There are a number of strong synergies between the two teams, and we’re looking forward to the prospect of working together.”
