In line with the scientific projections and Government instructions, Bernhard and Company has come to the decision to suspend its operations with immediate effect on March 24th.

Steven Nixon, Director of Bernhard Company, explained: “Nobody knows how long this crisis will last but clearly it will become much more difficult to continue to trade for several months. However, we will keep customers and partners up to date with developments and will review the situation weekly, observing always the government’s advice.”

The unprecedented impact of Coronavirus on businesses globally is an enormous challenge. Many businesses must dramatically curtail operations. We are doing that now but with great care to safeguard our staff and the teams who work with us. In due course we will be able to share our plans for the better times that will return.

Please be patient during this extraordinary time of worry and its threats to our health and wellbeing. Thank you, our employees, customers, suppliers and partners, for your continued support. We’ll be in touch with you again soon with updates on the situation and how we are dealing with it. You’ll be kept in the loop with details of our progress.

For any queries, please contact Bernhard Company on: queries@bernhard.co.uk so we can respond as you would expect. We care deeply about all our friends and know you do too.
