Cable Solutions would like to take this opportunity to wish its staff, clients and suppliers a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous 2018.

In general, it was an above average year for Cable Solutions, and we owe some of our 2017 success to streamlining the company and setting new targets in Q4 of the previous year.
