STATEMENT
OF INTENT
Leading systems company Liniar has announced the appointment
of Sue Davenport to the position of Group Marketing Director. It is a
clear statement of intent from Managing Director Roger Hartshorn,
and the next stage in the company’s development as it seeks to
become one of the genuine market leaders in the industry.
A DECADE TO
DIRECTOR
Kent Home Improvements is glad to welcome the appointment
of Mike England as its
new Sales Director.
At the tender age of 16
Mike started with Kent’s and
now celebrating his 10th
year with the company, he
has been justly awarded
with his new position.
Mike was quoted to say, “I
am thrilled to take on the
role with Kent Home improvements, 10 years have
flown by, I love the interaction with our customers
and I am looking forward to
growing the business even
further.”
Mike has been working
very closely with Kent’s
customers and has become
a very valued team player.
His recent achievements
include the instrumental
part he played in Kent’s CE
marking strategy for all its
windows, doors, and conservatories.
“Following on from the opening late last year of
our brand new warehouse, and the completion in
June this year of our 60,000 tonne capacity mixing plant, Sue’s appointment will boost our management structure as these investments start to
bring the growth we have planned for.”
“We have had a clear policy from the outset to invest in an
infrastructure which would support the current and future
scale of our business, and to continue to develop great
products for the exclusive use of our fabricators.”
“Sue’s appointment is the next piece in the jigsaw, and
she will play a major role in the development of the Liniar
brand going forward; and with her team will work alongside our customers to help them develop their marketing
strategies as they too push for growth.”
“It is an exciting time for Liniar and for its fabricators. At
a time when many of the former market leading companies
are losing their identity through being merged or through
being acquired, and their product brands lose their identity in the market place as a direct consequence, the Liniar
brand will continue to become stronger as a result of our
on-going policy of investment in every aspect of our business.”
