What they say about themselves

Taken from their own website. We have not verified any of it — it is here because it is useful, and labelled because it is unverified.

Says it has been trading since 2018. We have not confirmed that against a register — an ABN records when an entity was registered, which is often a different date from when the business started.

On its own site, this business says it is licensed and says it is certified.
