🏗️We had a delivery yesterday 🏗️

The skeleton of the new sales office has arrived!!

We will be moving our main sales office (don't worry not to far), this will be going up at our warehouse on the Stepbridge Road Industrial Estate on Tufthorn road in Milkwall, just round the corner from our current site next to the Tufthorn inn.

As you can see, there is a long way to go but having the bare bones on site is one step closer.

We will keep you updated with the progress as it happens and look forward to welcoming you to the new office hopefully by this time next year!
