    I usually don’t write long testimonials but I really can’t say enough about the unparalleled service that Spicer International have consistently provided for us. We import high value sporting goods from Europe into Australia and before we discovered these people through recommendation, the shipping side of things was a nightmare.

They are a great asset indeed.
