The Company generally made good profits over the last 10 years, building on the established historic customer base as well as attracting new customers that have been coming back over many years with repeat orders Judy Davies resigned as a director in 2012 but continued on as an employee to manage the accounts and payroll until she left the Company completely in mid 2015
