I have to leave this job for personal reasons that are too important to ignore but the company and its staff are absolutely gifted and attentive. I hqve heard people giving this place a negative vibe but not from my experience. From management (Mark ducker in particular) to general staff I have found them to be amazing, competent and above all else first class people. Go into this company with the right frame of mind and you will end up with another family not just a job. It has honestly been a pleasure..10 out of 10 for me

IT NEVER EVEN CAME! Ordered at 2am, said would be here at 3.05am, I rang the restaurant at 3.20am and he said its on its way. Rang again half an hour later to cancel the order because we were fed up of waiting, he went silent and hung up on me. WORST experience when ordering a takeaway, dont waste your time or money

We have just competed the annual PAT maintenance for this company for the second year. This in its self shows a commitment for best practice and employee welfare. We found everyone to be very professional and conscientious in their approach to all they were doing. Even down to their approach to recycling which we found out by throwing something in the wrong bin! But again when told of our mistake, done so with the utmost respect. Behind the scenes these guys are a cracking company to do business with.
