Amazing customer service
The service we receive from Gary is amazing. He is very professional when completing his duties, but he is also friendly. He is always happy and chats to the staff. He follows protocols of not going into the toilets unless there are no children in there.
Gary continues to complete his duties to a very high standard, while also fitting in with the team.
He deserves a 5 star rating.

5 stars for Kevin
Kevin is always friendly and approachable when he visits us and if we have questions regarding the products. He speaks and says hello to all staff and is polite to our customers if they are present when Kevin comes in, and is pleasant throughout. He does a very thorough job everytime and leaves the place clean and tidy, and asks if everything is okay before he leaves. Customer service 5 stars.
