As a result of the above it is unlikely that you will make any decent money from one of their contracts!

Dai ive been offerded this work a couple of times in the last couple of years there really isnt much profit in it,the last time they came to me with there costing/what they would pay me i said no too, then about a week later they came back with a better offer but still not worth it too me by the time i paid the lads etc hardly any profit. I suppose it depends on how you are set up and how desperate you are for the work,what you could do is give it a go for while see how you get on if its not workin just drop it.

2 years ago I used to do my local Boots (N.Wales) for £2 but sadly lost the job to an outside  cleaning firm who took on most of the branches. They have been sending various "man and a van" types. the last one took 20 min to do 5 min work because he hadnt a clue how to clean windows and 20 min to travel to the next job. So it now looks like they are in the process of themselves being shafted by Pedus. So no tears from me.
One problem with the N.Wales round are that some guy in an office works out 20 stores at say £5 a store equals ....whatever, but they fail to take into account the rural roads and distances involved and end up loosing. Same with the bank contracts,dog eat dog.
3 monthly, they must be havin a larf. ::)
I hope Pedus and similar choke on it. Bring em on !
