"Within one week of becoming a business partner we achieved sales within our design, executive furniture and IT divisions. I am now convinced that networking is a great benefit to any company. Thank you once again. I have now torn up my lottery tickets as I feel my investment in the GDA (Holdings) Partnership is a far better gamble"
