General Manager @Im Group Formerly Inkmaker Group

View department →

St Ives, GB

Following the sale of our businesses to Inkmaker in 2019, I now manage the Inkmaker UK Limited operation to provide the sales, supply and technical support of IM Group brand products (including Rexson, Inkmaker & ValeTech) within the UK and also Scandinavia. Key goal for 2024 was the successful relocation and integration of the business into brand new premises in St Ives, Cambridgeshire - consolidating our Kettering and Newmarket operations together into one stronger team. 2024 marks 30 years working in the ink, paint and chemical dispensing, blending and mixing industry.
