Behind the Scenes at PermaGroup: Business insights in our top line interview series with Adrian Buttress
How Have You Navigated the Challenges of the Last Few Years with Stock, Import Restrictions, Covid-19 etc?
Video transcript:
With Covid restrictions and other challenges over the last two years, for the Covid part, we decided that every - well, once we had the first shutdown, we said "OK, we've never been here before, no one's ever been here before, so how do we manage it?"- and we decided that at 8am every Friday morning, the Directors would get together to define the department's operations and just assess what had happened that week - what was the current legislation? what did we have to do to be safe?
So every Friday morning we had those meetings, just to reassess and plan the following seven days - and we still do that today, even though it's not so much Covid-related - it's performance-related and we've got a real hold on the business, so if we have any problems or anything like that, they can be only a couple, up to five days old so we can nip them right in the bud.
With the stock allocations, obviously, we were on allocation ourselves, so we just had to, you know, just try and give everyone a little bit of something, it wasn't 100% success rate, but loyal customers we did prioritise - we said no to a lot of business, because other people were running out, they were coming to us as new customers, but we had to say no. It was hard, you know, hard to do, but it was the right thing and just supply loyal customers with whatever we could - it's like trying to feed a starving family of five, with enough food for three, you know it was one of those situations, but that's how we managed it.
