We've enjoyed a long partnership with McCarthy Stone and were thrilled to win the 2024 Supply Chain Award for Customer Supplier of the Year. In the words of Alex Beaumont, Food and Beverage Manager at McCarthy Stone........ “Elior have done an exceptional job planning and executing the mobilisation of 63 developments. It was a true team effort where Elior colleagues came together from across the business to spend three days in the changing developments to ensure a smooth transition. Some left home at 4am and travelled hundreds of miles to make this all happen for McCarthy Stone. There was no adverse feedback from homeowners or from the colleagues moving across so that was testament to a job extremely well done” Congratulations Gill Heath and your team for this well deserved recognition.
