Cliff Jones retires after 51 Years at Rema Tip Top

Having successfully navigated his half century at Rema Tip Top, Cliff Jones has announced that his retirement at the end of August 2020. This will mark a new chapter in Jones’s life and he’s sure to reflect on his contribution to the company and the great many people that enjoyed his friendship over those years.
