Re: Wessex Final Straw

If you like salvadori mouldings contact nielsenbainbridge they do lots of salvadori products.theres that many suppliers they will fall over each other to get customers and offer silly prices on products.

Re: The end of Renaissance Mouldings Ltd

Very sad to hear as people lose they're jobs makes u wonder if there's other smaller long established company's ready to do the same.i think there's still a big need for local wholesalers in the trade we are in there's always that quick job needing done big job to send vans all over the country.
