When you examine the reason for consistent success in most companies, the outstanding quality seems to be a concern and an interest in their customers, large and small, and throughout the company a desire to offer very good service. This was the determined aim of Ron Slater and George Mordue when they started M&S Distributors in 1982 to stock and sell fixings and fasteners.

They selected the Sharp-aX suite of management and accounting software from Sharp-aX Computer Systems in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire in October 2012.

It follows that when he started his own business, the qualities of the computer system, the company supplying and supporting it were of paramount importance to him.

Fairview leads the way in supplying traditional building supplies, but understands the need to become a modern supplier.
