 FACTORY SHOP
FACTORY SHOPDebbie Poggo, Owner
Factory Shop in Linden (Jhb) was founded in June 1987 and we have been doing business with UPP (Dinu Professional) since then. I have always had wonderful reps and service and have obviously been very happy. Over the years I have seen great growth in the serviette lines and have advised them on numerous occasions of what is popular and what isn’t.
CAFE41 GROUP
CAFE41 GROUPGreg Patsalosavis, Managing Director
As a growing restaurant brand, we wanted our name and identity to be visible to all our clients through our serviettes. Dinu Professional was the only company that had the brands best interest at heart. Since the inception of our business with UPP, our brand has grown stronger and we value the relationship now and in the future. The personal attention shown by UPP has emphasised the loyalty, quality and professionalism given to customers. We can highly recommend partnering with UPP for any branded paper solutions.
