London HQ in the 1970s & 80s

In all of your internet sites on the history of R S Components there is never any mention of your many years at Fitzroy House, Epworth Street in London, why is this? It's as if you are ashamed of it. It was largely instrumental in guiding the Company into becoming the global corporation it has become today and to forget this time you had there is very disrespectful to the many staff who worked there and were very proud to do so. Can this omission please be corrected? 92.22.92.215 (talk) 10:01, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - Do you have any reliable, published sources describing the activities there? Dormskirk (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

London HQ in the 1970s & 80s

Hi Dormskirk - I do have some published material on their time in London somewhere but it make take some time to find as its now 38 years since I worked there. I was, at the time the "Telephone Order Office" Manager and my wife was Secretary to a Senior Executive. To our knowledge Fitzroy House, Epworth Street in London was their main HQs for the 1970s through to 1984 when they relocated to Corby, Northants making hundreds of staff redundant. 92.22.92.215 (talk) 18:33, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK. But please read WP:RS: it needs to have been published and needs to be independent of the company. Dormskirk (talk) 20:57, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

R S Components London during 1970s / 80s

No, as I previously stated, published material would now be hard to find but I defy anyone to contradict my previous statements that they spent many years at Fitzroy House, Epworth Street London! 92.22.92.215 (talk) 09:56, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
