When I started at Wood Finishes Direct, the company had just moved to a new office (from a farm) and was made up of a team of 12 people in total. The day I left, the space had tripled in size, staff levels were at 50 and consisted of multiple teams, and I had seen roughly half a million orders leave the warehouse in that time.
