Installations included the Brewery in central Stockport, a packaging plant in Bredbury and Robinsons’ managed houses across the whole of the Northwest. Simon Fuller, IT Infrastructure Service Manager at Robinsons said: ”As a family run business, we wanted to partner with someone with the same values and ethos. The process was very easy and straightforward. Operationally no issues and integration was great. Woodbank technical guys are very experienced, and they knew what they were doing. We just left them to it. They do all the liaison and the training. Very efficient, very smooth.” For Janet Bowden, owner of Woodbank, having Robinsons as a customer is a dream come true. “I moved into Woodbank House Friday 30 May 2003. The day is emblazoned into my memory. It was a beautiful hot day, I looked across from my office, smelt the hops from the brewery and thought to myself, one day that account will be mine.” Bowden’s long-standing relationship with Konica Minolta came into its own with both businesses pulling out all the stops to make sure the order was fulfilled so Woodbank could deliver on time. www.woodbankoffice.co.uk Aurora expands Hertford HQ Aurora recently held a grand opening of its new offices and warehouse at its Hertford headquarters.
