Their 75th anniversary year in 2021 was one of incredible growth and success, crowned by Willerby Limited being named Manufacturer of the Year in the highly prestigious Yorkshire Post Excellence Awards.

We were introduced to GET Solutions in the summer of 2022. Due to the energy crisis, we were facing a massive increase in our annual spend and our current consultant could not offer us a solution to mitigate our increased costs. We were facing an increase to our annual budgets of over £4m and needed urgent expert advice. Initially, we were sceptical as, historically, we’ve always chosen a fully fixed contract and the idea of going into energy baskets made us feel rather apprehensive. Trust was generated quickly through the comprehensive information supplied, the transparent process, and meetings with GET Solutions’ specialist energy team. Thanks to their industry knowledge and expertise, our procurement options were made very clear. We had not realised that so many different options were available to us! 

We could not be happier with how our contract is working for us; compared to the fixed contract we were previously offered, we are looking at a potential saving of over £3m in the first year and have two more years to come. I cannot speak highly enough of what Victor and the team at Get Solutions have done to help us through these difficult times. I have no hesitation in recommending Get Solutions as an outstanding energy partner, it is not surprising they are established market leaders in their field of expertise.
