The adverse impact that plastic is having on our environment is well documented in the media. Public awareness and the acknowledgment that it is our responsibility to make a difference has become very apparent. So much plastic lands up on beaches around the world, many animals ingest the plastic and die.  Producing and disposing of plastic often leads to the release of dangerous toxins into our environment.

In my capacity as owner of PVC I worked to the point of overload, resultant stress and private life disruption for fifteen years, always striving for a prosperous tomorrow, but sacrificing the quality of those today's.

Having worked for a National merchant for the past 18 years I decided it was time for a change.  I joined PVC in April 2018 and within the first month, I noticed the difference, the products and technologies are the same, but their primary focus was the customer.  Within PVC the customer experience is pivotal.

Customers’ needs are changing, they want more, and their expectations are higher.  These are challenging times for any business.  PVC has built its reputation on delivering on time and in full. A simple mantra to give the customer what they want, when they want it. Keep it simple and be consistent.

As the sun rises the roller door opens, we wave goodbye to 20 Lorries, picked packed and loaded by our night shift full of plumbing goodness.

The office is illuminated, computers booting, trade counter opened and most importantly the kettle is boiling. It is time to start another day in the PVC playground aka: the PVC sales office.

A good business is built around organised systems and procedures. A great business however, is the sum of its people. Yes you need process, routine and structure but, to turn an average business into a high achieving enterprise is reliant on the dedication and commitment of its employees.  Energy, enthusiasm and an inherent desire to fulfil our customers’ exacting needs runs through the heart of every employee working at PVC.

Having started with PVC in 2006, I have steadily climbed the ladder; as Head of Operation’s I manage three teams totalling forty-one people across operations and logistics.

Customer Commitment is at the heart of PVC, it is our USP.  We will adapt to suit the customer. This ethos is challenging given 20 vehicles and a daily average of 75 early drop requests. We do it though. PVC hit a 94% average achieved for our early drop requests.
