Our main IDW specialist courier, Tuffnells is due to formerly announce it is in administration today.
We have used Tuffnells extensively for years, but unfortunately it seems that this is due to come to an end today.
All of our items were left uncollected on Friday, so deliveries for today are affected, plus several other items that were already in the delivery pipeline with Tuffnells are also due to be affected.
Staff have been notified that a meeting will take place today at around mid-day 12/06/2023 and we expect news to filter through soon afterwards. We are hopeful of a positive outcome, not just for ourselves, but for the 1000's of staff and drivers who have had a weekend of misery.
WE WILL NOTIFY ALL CUSTOMERS AFFECTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE WITH A CONFIRMED COURSE OF ACTION
WE ASK FOR PATIENCE AT THIS TIME AS YOU CAN IMAGINE WE ARE LIKELY TO BE INUNDATED WITH CALLS AND EMAILS ABOUT THIS.
