Barrus, an importer and distributor of marine equipment in the UK, has appointed Ian Henery as area sales manager (Scotland and north of England) for the firm’s marine equipment division.
In his new role, Henery will support Barrus’ network of marine dealers and promote the Barrus marine equipment range, which includes brands such as Autosol, Barton, Bostik, Glomex, Guidi, MG Duff, International Paints, Seaflo and Simrad.
“I have a longstanding passion for sailing and boats, which influenced my career path from an early age,” says Henery. “Having worked in the marine industry for 33 years in retail and distribution environments, I bring a high level of product and technical knowledge to my new role.
“I’m excited to join such a highly respected company. I look forward to building relationships with existing customers, providing technical support and developing new business for Barrus in the north of the UK.”
Mark Hart, sales manager for marine equipment at Barrus, adds: “We warmly welcome Ian to the Barrus team.
