Tony Fletcher is celebrating 25 years working for local timber merchant Walford Timber.
The company, located near Ross-on-Wye was started in 1945 and is a manufacturer and supplier of timber and fencing products across the UK.
Tony joined the company as a 26 year old and has seen many changes in his time.
When Tony first joined the business, it was as a customer service advisor and he was one of just five people in the office. Tony is now the company’s Senior Account Manager, looking after their wholesale customers. Tony has developed a great rapport with the customers and there are some customers that Tony has been working with since joining the business in 1993.
Tony said “I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the last 25 years at Walford Timber, working for a fantastic family business, I have the pleasure of working alongside some lovely people, and have forged some great friendships along the way.”
George Smith (Managing Director) said “It was with great pleasure that I was able to present Tony with his 25 year service award. We are truly appreciative of Tony’s service and it was fantastic to be able to congratulate him at his presentation.”
The company also celebrated the occasion at the Royal Hotel in Ross, when staff enjoyed an evening of food and drink in honour of Tony.
