"We were up against competition 50 times our size but the joint (pitching) strategy worked. Excel Office Supplies ticked the customer care, IT and support requirements and Spicers ticked the robust, scalable logistic handling requirements."
"We have just signed a new long term commitment to Spicers, for our business and our customers continuity is key. The staff based in Manchester are excellent and understand our needs and having so much stock on our doorstep helps immensely."
"The most important element of all is finding and working with a partner where there is mutual respect, empathy and understanding... The people to people interaction between our two businesses is what makes such a difference and this is why Bluefish had no hesitation in extending our contract with Spicers."
