Bio
Faneau van Niekerk
During my time working with Gareth I have found him and his team to be reliable and committed to our brand values. They have been very receptive to our merchandising needs and adapted effectively to any promotional changes, sometimes at short notice. I would recommend GEM as they have a proven track record and they have consistently delivered commercially strong standards in my concession departments.

I worked closely with Gareth during my time as Gift Buyer, where the account distribution expanded rapidly. Gareth was instrumental in ensuring the team were fully commited to this project and this support resulted in a successful roll out implementation.
