High quality, durability, competitiveness, service, high supply performance and support of a loyal distribution chain have gained this position and in 2005 Jonesco began to explore a new market.

This was a huge investment, but has strengthened the UK economy to no end. It allows for businesses to enter and leave the country quickly and defiantly, it also allows for freight and other such businesses to operate all around Europe. It links the UK, a member of the EU with the rest of the EU, increasing trade and allowing for shared resources between England and France.
