As distribution customers of Gill since 2006, we can attest to their exceptional customer service and genuine 'soundness’ when we’re in a pickle. They have accommodated us for signings, re-stickering’s, urgent deliveries, urgent releases, and always with a smile. Particular thanks to Alfie, Lynsey, and JP for always being at the end of the phone!
