"We can confirm that we have dealt with STS as our Certifying Body and Auditors for a period of 8 years.
During this time they have lived up to their name, giving excellent Support, Training and Service in all aspects of applying the Code of Practice and Technical Standards for Food Processors and Suppliers to the Public Sector.
Their work has been a major factor enabling us to acquire our current status as a Nominated Supplier to the NHS and other University Buying Consortiums in the Private Sector.
We can confidently recommend STS as a company that is pleasant, helpful and efficient to deal with, at the same time as being experts in their field."

"We have been using STS Farnham Surrey for many years at Guildford YMCA for our training. We have had a good success rate and feel STS is a very valuable company to assist in food safety for companies like ours. I have had myself and many of my supervisors do the level 3 food safety course and ha been very valuable, it has helped us increase our scores on the doors rating to 4 stars. The EHP’s were very impressed with our training records to see so many certificates. My Head Chef Ben White continued to level 4 after level 3 and now has his professional certificate and we are now licensed to train in house. I will continue to use STS Farnham for future training needs, and already plan a refresher for my restaurant Supervisor in September 2009."

"We were very pleased at the high standard of training and advice that sts-solutions could offer our company. We were not expecting to be working with trainers with such an in-depth knowledge of an airline environment and procedures. During the training they were very open to involving managers at all levels and very eager to offer advice and help in any way. All in all, we were very happy with their friendly, simple approach to training and should we need further training down the line we will definitely be calling on sts-solutions."
