No Limitz pride themselves on their friendly, helpful staff who are experts in customer service and always on hand to provide advice. Whether it is help sizing up for a hockey stick or advice on what school uniform you need, their staff are always on hand to assist.
They are heavily involved in the Bedford sporting community, supplying kit for a number of clubs in the area, such as Bedford Junior Blues, Falcon Gymnastics, Bedford Harriers and Bedford Cricket Club.
