When Andrew & Peter started out their Pest control business back in 1988 they had no idea what the future would hold and could only dream that they would still be running 30 years on.
From setting up at home working from the garage with their wives answering the calls to 30 years later with a fully working office and 11 staff.
After 30 years of hard work, dedication, Hullternative is still going strong, and now the next generation of the family, Natalie, Andrews Daughter and Martin, Peters son are working hard to hopefully continue the success of their fathers and continue to take the business from strength to strength for another 30 years and more.
Andrew and Peter built the service around trust, reliability and sensible prices, which is the same today as it was in 1988. Others have come and gone, so they must be doing something right!”
As they celebrate their 30 years Andrew and Peter look back on how things have changed.
“We started from scratch. Today, we have 11 employees and a fleet of vans. We still deal with wasps, ants, rats, mice and other pests for both domestic and commercial customers, but we now provide grounds maintenance and washroom supplies for some of our corporate customers. It gives them a one-stop shop that they know they can trust.”
“30 years gives us experience and knowledge. What gives us the edge is that we constantly look for new ideas and keep up to date with changes.”
“One thing for sure is we wouldn’t be where we are today without the hard work from all our staff, continued support from all of our customers new and old, and even the suppliers whom continue to support us year in year out and for that we are truly grateful”
Even as they take a moment to look back, Hullternative are facing the future with confidence. 30 years is a great achievement.
The directors and staff celebrated the special occasion with a party and awards ceremony back in November. Thank you to everyone that joined us for this special occasion.
