Post by: window wonder on February 04, 2009, 04:12:46 pm

As the title says does anyone do any somerfields did i hear that co-op are buying them over???

Thing is a local window cleaner is selling of his somerfields and has offered it to me and a fellow window cleaner he is sub contacted by the general cleaning company that do the shop floor cleaning.
Just not sure with the situation just now with cut backs etc .
its alot of money to hand over then things go wrong.

I heard last week from the Manageress in my local Somerfield that they were all being sold off.  

Even if they weren't there is no way I would buy work that is contracted to a general cleaning company.
