- Commercial IT hardware supply
- Computer components and networking equipment
- IT support services

We operate primarily within the United Kingdom and source products from established, authorised technology distributors and manufacturers.
Our Supply Chain
As a reseller of branded IT hardware, our supply chain consists primarily of:
- Major global technology manufacturers
- Authorised UK and EU-based distribution partners
We do not manufacture products directly.
We expect all supply chain partners to comply with applicable labour laws and modern slavery legislation within their respective jurisdictions.
Risk Assessment
Due to the nature of our business model:
- We operate in the UK, a low-risk jurisdiction

The risk of modern slavery within our direct operations is considered low.
However, we recognise that global electronics supply chains can carry inherent risks, and we rely on our suppliers' own compliance frameworks and ethical standards.
