They specialise in four key areas which include Healthcare Products, Precision Woodworking, Rotational Moulding and Street Furniture. Each area of the business has a strong ethos to ensure they recognise and respond to the customers’ need for competitive pricing and dependable service. This ethos lead Gordon Ellis to review their current hardware infrastructure in order to meet their customers’ expectations. Gordon Ellis found that TouchStar’s Boston 8550 terminal matched the level of reliability and efficiency they needed to run their warehouse smoothly.
