Through a trusted consortium of supply partners, DASIS manages all aspects of the product manufacturing process from concept to completion.

The UK economy has faced many challenges in recent years, including the current health pandemic. It has tested the ingenuity and resilience of UK SME’s and their supply chain leaders have sought to maintain essential operations in a difficult climate.
