Bio
Lloyd Pennington
I first worked with Dan via one of my clients on a portable wood burning stove project. I found Dan to be a straight talker, he never made any outrageous claims. He gave honest prices that reflected quality and value for money, not the lowest price and a bundle of problems that others seem to do. When the Stoves arrived, the quality of the finished product was outstanding. Dan and his team also arranged a prototype to be built in the shortest of times. All of Dan's staff whom I dealt with (Matt and Jeanette) were equally a pleasure to deal with, polite, helpful, friendly and very professional. I would highly recommend Gait International for your outsourcing needs and I for one am looking forward to the next opportunity to work with Dan and his team again in the near future.
