After nearly 15 years of existence, it is a time to reflect on who we are and what we have contributed to society. Charity has from day one played an important part in our evolvement and our continued success has allowed us to be more generous and increase the number of charities we support.
It gives us great fulfillment as a business to be able to help those less fortunate than ourselves as well as charities which are focused on finding solutions to pressing medical problems. Recently, we have helped the Brain Tumour Charity (see below top 1% of donors in April) and the Mary Hare Foundation as well as sponsoring the World Cancer Research Fund with all their water cooler and hydration solutions (represented 0.5% of our turnover in the past 12 months.
Our involvement with Margaret’s House started through Stuart Abbott MBE, a Rugby World Cup winner, who raced with the boys last year. Stuart and the chairman of Margaret’s House, Jonathan Gersch, are friends of our Managing Director, Guy Florin, and we are confident that all funds donated are not spent on grotesque marketing fees but are used properly on the children as intended.

Where did the business start?
The business started out of a small office in the Coda Centre in Fulham in June 2004 before a warehouse with offices was found in Wimbledon in September of the same year. At the same time a sales and marketing office was started in Cape Town, South Africa, to act as the commercial arm of the business and Guy Florin spent a lot of time to and fro between the various offices.
Initially, the business got off the ground with a contract to supply 65 bottled coolers to an institution previously supplied by
