Uma kukhulunywa ngokukhiqiza nemishini, i-Adelphi iqinisekisa ukuthi asinazo izinkathazo, njengoba inikeze isevisi esezingeni eliphezulu eyaqala ngesikhathi kwethulwa i-LittlePod ngo-2010. Ukuqinisekisa ukuthi sinemishini efanele futhi sigcina yonke into ihamba kahle, iqembu lika-Adelphi lidlale indima ebalulekile kuMkhankaso wethu we-Real Vanilla, akekho omunye ngaphandle kukaDean Willis. Eminyakeni eyishumi nanhlanu selokhu avakashela i-LittlePod HQ okokuqala, uMqondisi Wokuthengisa we-Adelphi Manufacturing wabuyela e-East Devon ukuyovuselela abantu abajwayelene noJanet neqembu. Elangazelela ukuthola okwengeziwe ngalokho osekuphenduke ubambiswano oluphelele, uPaul wahlala phansi noDean. Nanka amazwi akhe:

Sesibe yingxenye yohambo lwe-LittlePod iminyaka engu-15. Kuye kwanelisa kakhulu ukubona ukuthi inkampani ikhule futhi yathuthuka kanjani ngaleso sikhathi nokwazi ukuthi sibe nendima kukho konke okuzuzwe yi-LittlePod. Ngikhumbula ngiqala ukufika lapha ngo-2010 ngizohlangana noJanet. Emuva ngaleso sikhathi wayelungise yonke into ekhishini futhi wayedinga usizo lokugcwalisa amabhodlela namashubhu. Simethule emshinini wakhe wokuqala wokugcwalisa futhi wenze umehluko. Kusukela lapho i-LittlePod ikhule ngaphezu kwakho konke ukuqashelwa. Kube yintokozo ukuyibona ithuthuka.

Njenge-LittlePod, u-Adelphi ukhule kakhulu. Saqala ngo-1947 embonini yokupakisha. U-Adelphi useyibhizinisi lomndeni, inkampani enomyeni nomfazi, futhi asikaze silahlekelwe yilowo muzwa. Kodwa kusukela ngalezo zinsuku zakuqala, sesikhule kakhulu futhi manje sinezinkampani ezine ezahlukene. Nakhu I-Adelphi Manufacturing engisebenzelayo kanye ne-Adelphi Masterfil, i-Adelphi Pharma Hygiene Products kanye ne-Adelphi Healthcare Packaging. Sisebenzela ukudla, ukwenza imithi, okokugeza, izimonyo nokunye. Asikho isikhathi esinzima - njengalapha e-LittlePod!

Ngajoyina i-Adelphi ngo-1993 futhi ngizofika eminyakeni engama-32 nenkampani. Ngaqala njengomdayisi futhi ngisebenze ngendlela yami ukuze ngibe umqondisi wezentengiso. Kube wuhambo olude! Phakathi naleso sikhathi, ngiye ngahlangana nabantu abaningi, kodwa bambalwa kakhulu abafana noJanet. Unothando olunjalo futhi angikaze ngihlangane nomuntu ofana naye. Abantu bavame ukuqala ngothando olukhulu, kodwa ngokuvamile ibhizinisi lithatha izintambo futhi kuba nzima ukulinakekela. Eminyakeni eyishumi nanhlanu selokhu aqala i-LittlePod, ngicabanga ukuthi uthando lukaJanet lwalokhu lukhulu kunangaphambili - ngisho nangaphezu kuka-2010.

Intshisekelo kaJanet eyenza i-LittlePod ikhange kakhulu kubantu. Bekulokhu kunjalo kimina. Intshisekelo yakhe bekulokhu kudlulisa kubantu lokho abaphuthelwa yikho futhi yonke imicu evela kulokhu ikwenza kuhehe. Kunensimu yezithelo ye-LittlePod e-Indonesia futhi kukhona abasabalalisi lapha, lapho futhi yonke indawo; kukhona imikhiqizo emihle nezindaba ezithakazelisayo kanye nabo bonke abantu abahlukene abahilelekile ekwenzeni konke kwenzeke. Lokho kufaka phakathi u-Adelphi, kunjalo. Kodwa kufanele ngigcizelele ukuthi lokhu kwakungeke kwenzeke ukube uJanet wayengenalo lolu thando kanye nayo yonke le micabango nemibono: ukuthi uye kuphi, yini okufanele yenziwe nokuthi ukwenze kanjani.

Ngicabanga ukuthi lokho uJanet akuzuzile kule minyaka engu-15 edlule kuyakhuthaza kakhulu. Angisakwazi ukulinda ukubona ukuthi wenzani ngokulandelayo!

UDean Willis, u-Adelphi Manufacturing

Ngo-2020, sasiza i-LittlePod ukuthi isebenze ngokugcwele. Ngikhumbula kahle. Ngahlela yonke into. Kwakuyinselele enkulu. Umshini wokugcwalisa ishubhu we-LittlePod we-TGM wakhiqizwa e-Italy. Umsebenzi wokuqala wawuwukuyisa kuDevon. Sithole indawo yokuyigcina, eduze kwase-Exeter Airport, ngaphambi kokuyisa e-LittlePod HQ, phansi kuyo yonke le mizila yezwe emincane. Yayingekho indlela yokuthi iloli lalikwazi ukujika lingene emgwaqeni, ngakho wonke umuntu owayelapha kwadingeka alekelele ukuwehlisa emgwaqeni futhi alifake ebhilidini. Kwakudingeka sikhiphe izingcezu emshinini futhi sikhiphe izinsimbi eminyango ukuze nje singene ngaphakathi. Bekuwusuku oluthokozisayo, lokho kuyiqiniso. Angisoze ngakukhohlwa!

Kuhlale kumnandi ukuvakashela i-LittlePod futhi ubone umshini usetshenziswa kahle. Ukuwuthola lapha bekuwumsebenzi impela kodwa uma sesiwuqalile, asiphindanga sabheka emuva. Saxoxa ngokwenza lokhu isikhashana futhi ngangilokhu ngithi kuJanet, 'hhayi okwamanje' ngesisekelo sezinombolo. Ekugcineni, lapho sifika eqophelweni lapho kwaba sobala ukuthi ukuzenzela kungaba inzuzo, umshini we-TGM wathengwa futhi uye wabonakala ubalulekile kusukela ngaleso sikhathi. Isikhathi besilungile futhi isinqumo uJanet asenza ngaleso sikhathi sisize i-LittlePod ukuthi ihambisane nesidingo esikhulayo. Ukumsiza ukuthi enze lesi sinyathelo kube yintokozo kubo bonke e-Adelphi Manufacturing.

Ngicabanga ukuthi lokho uJanet akuzuzile kule minyaka engu-15 edlule kuyakhuthaza kakhulu. Angisakwazi ukulinda ukubona ukuthi wenzani eminyakeni engu-15 ezayo. Angenza noma yini azimisele ngayo. Okumnandi ukubona bonke abantu afika nabo. Ukufundisa, ukuqeqeshelwa umsebenzi - uJanet uhlale efuna ukusiza abantu ukuthi bazuze, bathole iziqu futhi bafinyelele izindinganiso ezithile, okubenza bakwazi ukuqhubeka lapho isikhathi esifanele futhi bajabulele impumelelo emisebenzini yabo. Lokhu kuyinto esithanda ukuyenza e-Adelphi futhi futhi kungenye yezinto lezi zinkampani ezimbili ezifana ngazo. Kusukela ekuqaleni, lokhu kube ukubambisana okuphelele.

Ngihlala ngithanda ukubuyela e-LittlePod ukuze ngivakashele uJanet neqembu. Indawo inhle, usebenza endaweni encane futhi inomuzwa onjalo womndeni. Kungaphezu kwalokho, kunjalo. Njengoba imikhiqizo ye-LittlePod ithunyelwa emhlabeni wonke, leli yibhizinisi elibucayi. Kodwa awukaze ulahlekelwe yilowo mqondo, lowomuzwa noma lowombono omuhle wesonto elingaphansi kwengadi. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ngiza lapha ukuze ngithole inkomishi yekhofi nokubamba noma ngabe ucingo lwesevisi noma inkinga okufanele ilungiswe, ukuvakashela i-LittlePod kuhlala kujabulisa futhi angisakwazi ukulinda ukubuya futhi. Nakhu ku-LittlePod ne-Adelphi, eminyakeni eyi-15 ezayo nakho konke okuphathele izinkampani zethu!
