Unafraid to tell the Truth
Our founder, Iain Buchan, started The Unlimited 30 years ago as a family business, with the purpose of shifting lives.
Because of this, we treat our customers like family, and as part of our family, we know you need to trust us completely. Like every business, there are things we do well that we’re incredibly proud of. And like every business, we’ve made our fair share of mistakes along the way, and we know there are things we need to get better at.
That's why we're committed to sharing everything that happens at The Unlimited with you – and we mean all of it! The good and the bad, in the most honest way possible.
The Good, The Bad and the Freaken' Awesome!
