“We contacted CustomFab in February of 2024, as our manufacturer at the time was not shipping product or returning our phone calls - a *very* scary place to be for a small business trying to fill orders in a timely manner. Ariel and his team understood our need for product, and fast, as we were about two months behind on fulfilling orders. He and the team at CustomFab were so on it! It was only about 6 weeks from the time they received our raw materials to our first purchase order delivered - amazing! The service and communication we have since received is unrivaled; and we always receive clean, high quality units.”
