Sadly, this article on a long-lived company is only referenced by a single source (two sources appear in the list of references, however, they're syndicated articles). A WP:BEFORE on Google News and Google Books doesn't find anything to redeem it. Chetsford (talk) 06:57, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment. Struggling to find anything and can't immediately see an alternative to deletion. Could be local sources on such a longstanding business. Was hopeful that the documents on the company's website might be of help but one of the cuttings is an advertiser's announcement; the other headed "Comprehensive service from 300 employees" I'm unable to decipher and we'd need to find the original newspaper source to confirm whether or not it's an advertising feature.
