There all going over to 1 firm for the lot,a lot of big names are doing it now.Lots of eggs and even more baskets is the way to be in this game,just by keeping a few commercial customers happy month in month out and having nothing else is bad business,it used to be said that shops were for "life" not anymore.

He won`t get it back,they`ve made other plans just like other large shops have.They want 1 firm to do all shops ie whole of the south or whole of the north,you might have to take on 50-150 stores is he up to doing that,logistical nightmare springs to mind it would be a fulltime job looking after 1 job.

Hi,

The guy cleaning the Woolworth's stores here in Kingston Surrey I heard on the grapevine has lost their business. Not surprising as I believe woolworth's as a whole are finding trade very slow.
