In this update, we share the dramatic events following a massive fire near our facility in Huyton, Liverpool. Our business was impacted by the fire at a nearby commercial recycling plant, which prompted a swift response from the Merseyside and Chester fire services. Over the past week, we had to halt our operations, leading to a backlog in production and some smoke-damaged stock. As we strive to catch up, we discuss our recovery efforts, including offering smoke-damaged items at reduced rates and considering a move to a safer facility. We express our heartfelt gratitude for the support from our community and outline our plans to get back on track.Chapters:00:00 A Week of Challenges00:18 The Fire Incident01:53 Immediate Response05:53 Impact on Business Operations08:00 Recovery and Moving Forward11:29 Smoke-Damaged Stock Sale15:00 Future Plans and GratitudeTune in to MakingTime to gain a deeper understanding of the watch industry and to hear from the experts themselves.
