Charlie Buik, Sales Development Manager, Menzies Distribution, April 2010
"Menzies Distribution have been partnering with Innzone now for over 3 years, and I am delighted, as of January 2010, to now call them our exclusive third party call centre. Innzone continue to supply Menzies Distribution customers with attractive risk-free products, on deferred payment which benefits retailers and benefits us as a business. We now look forward to the results of their exciting World Cup telesales and allocation campaigns, which have already started very positively and to cementing the relationship even further throughout 2010-11."

 
Partnering with their news wholesaler, Innzone target, sell and distribute to each one of these customers by one of two routes to market - Allocation or Telesales – and the news wholesaler collects from the retailers any due charges and then passes these collected funds onto Innzone.
