The service we receive from Ian Smith group is always personal and efficient. The products have proven to be value for money.They are particularly good at customer service from start to finish on any size order. Our latest furniture order was unpacked and installed on our behalf which you don't often find. I would always consider requesting a quotation from them for future procurement.

IAN SMITH'S have made my job so much easier. They seem to supply everything and more. Our area sales team are so helpful and they seem to be able to arrange almost everything you would ever need in school, from janitorial to bespoke furniture. The delivery is second to none, sometimes the same day if not next day delivery on most items. Prices and quality are excellent, and they have a great variety. Cannot recommend them enough.
