Maya Abigail 4/5

Very happy that you have always supplied food for fish on time. Having been in fish farming for 4 years now, I know how frustrating it is not to have something to feed the fish. The diligence in customer service delivery is amazing. The support team is very polite and professional. In addition, the first processing of orders and shipment is top-notch. It surprises me how some deliveries are made earlier than expected and when there are delays you notify me. Thank you, for the great prices, quality products, advice and ease of doing business with you. I ‘m 100% satisfied with everything.
