Our company, Paula’s Choice Skincare ships about 1,000 parcels weekly from the Netherlands into the UK. With the risk of BREXIT we started the search for a local 3PL in the UK.
We asked Gwynne to help us with the tender phase. Based on our input he started the search for a suitable 3PL to warehouse and distribute our products.
I would highly recommend Gwynne. He knew exactly how to proceed and clearly understands what information is needed. Gwynne is very precise and helpful when pulling together a detailed tender. In that way he could advise us on the most cost effective and efficient operation.
Next to that it was a pleasure to work with him.
Bob A. Luijendijk, Paula’s Choice
Gwynne is a detail oriented professional. He takes time in understanding the needs of the client, the assignment requirements, key details in the project and executes the project with precision and detail. He also takes effort to mentor the client and helps them best understand the best decision to make. Gwynne is also extremely analytical and good in data mining so that meaningful information is derived. He takes full ownership of the assignment and drives passion until the project reaches completion.
Munyaradzi Matimba, Galeries Lafayette
I have worked with Gwynne on a number of logistics tenders over recent years with Gwynne acting on behalf of the client. We have always found Gwynne to be thorough, challenging, consistent and, crucially during tender processes, to be an excellent communicator. On occasions where we have been unsuccessful with a tender-bid Gwynne has also spent the time to provide valuable feedback. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gwynne.

Mr David H Clarke, Bridgestone UK Ltd
We instructed Gwynne Richards to act as an expert witness in a matter that involved the transfer of warehouse operations between very large sites in the North West. He provided a service that was comprehensive, prompt and added value. He was a calm and authoritative head in a very difficult and demanding situation.
