Nine pupils from Springwood Primary School in Swinton gained insights into working environments during a guided tour of Nimans' Manchester HQ.
A presentation on working at Nimans and the types of careers on offer was also given, along with a demo on how a phone system and two-way radios work.
The pupils then demonstrated their skills as phone operators as they rang each other up playing out a customer and sales scenario. Two separate groups then embarked on a guided tour of the premises, keeping in touch via two-way radio.
Event organiser Sue Goldfine from Nimans said: "We thought it would be an interesting and informative experience for the children to visit a large company and give them an insight into the world of work. It also gave our staff the chance to meet the young people who were very enthusiastic and keen to discover more."
School teacher Collette Gibbons added: "The pupils absolutely loved it. They don't normally get the chance to go behind the scenes of a business and learn about what goes on. It was a very worthwhile and rewarding experience."
