“What is remarkable and outstanding from the minute you meet them is their genuine commitment to delivering value and highly specialised solutions and its obvious that this personable approach is what has been the driving force behind their success”, said Georgie.

During the visit Nikky Barney Irvine shared their excitement about what the Shell contract means to the team and what it means to them to be able to give back to the Aboriginal community through the scholarships and other initiatives they support across WA and Australia.

“Pamela and I are extremely excited, we have put in a lot of hard work and now it has paid off. Shell have been absolutely fantastic, genuine and honest with us as we progress through different stage to now having this supply agreement.
