Cardiff appliance repair expert gives back to the community he calls home
A Cardiff appliance repair expert is already making his mark in the local community, supporting a much-loved foodbank as he settles into running his new business.
Rhys Pring, who officially launched Pacifica Local Cardiff in August, has been helping households across the city with their appliance repairs while continuing his personal support for Aber Valley FC Foodbank, which provides essential supplies to people in need.
Having lived in the area all his life, Rhys is passionate about giving something back to the community he calls home. His latest donation to the foodbank is helping to stock its shelves ahead of the busy Christmas period, ensuring local families can access much-needed supplies.
“Being able to help people in a community I know is a big part of why I’ve chosen this field of work and opened my own business,” explained Rhys. “I like being able to turn up, find out what’s wrong and get things working again – especially when it’s an appliance people rely on every day. It’s great knowing you’ve been able to make someone’s day that little bit easier.”
The donation has been warmly welcomed by the team at Aber Valley FC Foodbank, who have thanked Rhys for his generosity and ongoing commitment to supporting local people.
Andrew Hart, from Aber Valley FC Foodbank, commented: “Thank you so much to the amazing Rhys of Pacifica Local Cardiff for the donation to our foodbank. We are constantly amazed by the support we receive, and we're so thankful to see our shelves filling up nicely for Christmas and beyond.”
With a background in hands-on technical roles and customer service, Rhys launched his business to provide reliable appliance repairs to households throughout Cardiff and the surrounding areas. From washing machines and dishwashers to ovens and tumble dryers, he is helping residents get their everyday essentials back up and running.
And while building a successful business is firmly on his agenda, making a positive contribution to the local area remains just as important. “Great service means a lot to me. I’d like people to know they can rely on me when something goes wrong.
“Looking further ahead, I want to bring more engineers into the business so we can continue to reach more customers across South Wales.”
