Buy With Confidence in Northamptonshire! The Buy With Confidence scheme continues to expand across the UK following the launch of the scheme in the Northamptonshire County Council area during 2010. Quintrain Services Ltd was instrumental in making the scheme a big success to the benefit of member businesses, consumers and residents.

Comprehensive Spending Review:
Following the coalition Government’s spending review, budgets are very tight and are set to remain so for the forseeable future. Discretionary spending has come under the spotlight, meaning many trading standards services will be looking at their core activities. Assured trader schemes like Buy With Confidence may not be a statutory function but it must be remembered that they ‘tick all the right boxes’. Such initiatives deliver economic benefit to local businesses, increase consumer protection, improve community safety, increase compliance and make for better regulation.

Working with Quintrain:
We can be employed directly or as with many local authorities, employed via a recognised specialist agency such as Kenyon Block Consultants whom we highly recommend. www.kenyonblock.com
