Jill Galvin, who heads up the company’s personnel support, said “Kellaway’s success is based on the quality of customer service that we deliver. This high standard is entirely due to the attitude of our staff and the culture of mutual respect within our team approach. We have a very committed workforce and many are long serving members. In return for this commitment we offer good pay and benefits and the opportunity for personal and career development within a relaxed, friendly and professional environment.”

Mike Farrell, who made the award on behalf of Peninsula Business Services, said “I’m delighted to have presented this award. Kellaway Building Supplies has grown very quickly during the time that Peninsula has been associated with them and the fact that they have been able to retain the personal “family” touch alongside a professional approach to jobs and careers is a great achievement.”
