Ever wondered what it takes to stay in the game for 40 years? Just ask Minutes Quick Services, because they’ve got it in the bag! Since opening its doors in 1984, this go-to spot has been helping people with everything from fixing phones and laptops to altering clothes, repairing shoes, cutting keys, and even crafting cool custom graphics. This April, they pulled out all the stops for their big 40th birthday bash! Celebrating four decades of great service, loyal customers, and a team that truly feels like family. I have all the incredible details of what went down at the birthday bash, so keep reading to find out more.
A Big Thank You From The Top
CEO and co-founder Naseer Ali Jihad took a moment to thank the real heroes behind the company’s success: the employees who’ve stuck by the brand, the suppliers who’ve helped along the way, and of course, the customers who keep coming back. Long-time staff were honoured with special awards, and in one truly moving moment, a memorial plaque was presented in honour of Salwa Ajina, Minutes’ late co-founder, whose vision and heart continue to inspire everything the team does today.
Shaking Things Up With Some Fun
Don’t worry, the event wasn’t all business and speeches. Because what’s a celebration without games, prizes, and a bit of good food? Team members got to relax, laugh, and bond over fun activities, raffle draws, and delicious eats. It was a chance for everyone to reconnect, share memories, and soak in just how far they’ve come! I mean 40 years is no small number.
Growing Greener Every Day
During their big birthday bash, Minutes Quick Services wasn’t just looking back, they were also looking forward. The team is committed to doing business in a way that’s better for the planet. As Naseer puts it: “We implement eco-friendly practices such as recycling materials from repairs, using sustainable products, and reducing operational waste. Our aim is to encourage customers to choose repairs over replacements, promoting a culture of reuse”. It’s the small changes that makes a big impact.
What’s Next? More Innovation, More Expansion, Same Heart
With 40 years under their belt, you might think they’d slow down. Nope! Minutes is already making plans to grow, improve, and keep serving their customers even better than before! They’re sticking to what they do best – craftsmanship, personalised service, and now, a growing focus on sustainability.
So here’s to the next 40 years. Here’s to more repairs, more happy customers, and many more milestones to come!
