The 7 strong team, based in Gloucester and led by Mark and Sheila Wardle, implemented a strategy of strong internet marketing together with a flexible and supportive approach to a distributor network resulting in sales in over 90 countries.
Commenting on their success, Managing Director Mark Wardle said:
“We are honoured to be recognised in this way, our success is directly attributable to a talented and loyal team who recognise that support and communication is the number one issue for the majority of our customers.”
