Ilona speaking
“Since 2007, I have been guiding customers from the first conversation to the moment of unloading. I arrange the selection (on location or via videocall), make clear price and contract agreements, and ensure complete export documents. During transport, I stay in contact with the driver and make adjustments where necessary – so you have nothing to worry about and your animals arrive predictably.”
