"I’m thankful for our strong relationship with our suppliers and to our customers, many of whom are experiencing some of the toughest economic conditions they have ever known. As trading continues to be difficult for the whole industry, VIP has a talented team in place and we continue to invest in new technology and diversifying our product range."
