I look forward to working with them in the future.”
Head of Marketing and Commercial, Emily Salvidge said, “We are really excited to be working with Samurai, and we have been very impressed with the quality of the kit and their creative design ideas.

I know everyone is delighted with the results and we cannot wait to see the kit in action.”
