Looking Forward


And now the journey continues for Anasuria and our teams.

“I want the company to be a place where people enjoy their work, not just a place to get through the day. We spend a big part of our lives working and at AOC we are focussed on continuous improvement and being better. 

We are open to ideas to improve the business and actively encourage our people to innovate, make decisions and be part of something special – a company that our people can feel proud of.”
