“We are currently undergoing some work in the warehouse to give us a mezzanine floor and a clean room which is essential for our work with medical instruments and are hoping to be in before November.
“This is the right decision for our business and we even have a nature reserve nearby which is ideal for walking our dogs at lunchtime.”
