The Outcome

Sandy Bhamra comments:
“We are very pleased with the service we receive from GRITIT. We have compliments from tenants and occupiers all the time during the winter months; commenting on the fact that in spite of major roads and services coming to a standstill, their sites remain operational, as a result of the gritting and snow clearance carried out by OUTCO.”
