At W M Donald, we celebrate excellence through our GEM Awards, honouring employees who consistently exceed expectations. The acronym stands for, ‘Going the Extra Mile’, reflecting our values of dedication, innovation and service.

This year, Alan Macintyre, who has been with us for 24 1/2 years, received the honour for his reliability, diligence and invaluable contributions to the company.
