Ellen H.
I moved to IFS to follow Cath Gibson when she changed jobs last year as she is just fantastic to work with and always goes the extra mile for us. Some of our shipments are not the easiest! I just let her liaise directly with our customers once I have done the initial introduction as it just makes all of our lives easier with her experience and knowledge. I never have to chase her for updates on dates or anything, it just comes naturally to her to send them. So nice to work with like minded people!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much Ellen for the great review, it really does help our business. Cath will be delighted that you have given her a mention too!
