UK based milking equipment manufacturer, Fullwood Limited, has announced the appointment of Justin Thompson as the company’s new international sales manager.
Thompson joins Fullwood at the company’s head office in Shropshire following his recent move to the UK from Australia, where he has spent the last four years working within the international livestock and dairy sectors.
Thompson, a New Zealander with more than 10 years of experience in the global dairy industry, will be directly responsible for all sales outside of the UK, and for supporting Fullwood’s global network of distributors to increase sales of the company’s range of milking and milk-cooling products.
He has experience in the dairy sector having previously worked closely with a number of major milking machine manufacturers, specialising in international sales, business development in emerging markets, new product launches and research and development.
“I am excited to join Fullwood, a world-renowned British company that has a global reputation in dairy technology,” Justin states.
“Fullwood’s portfolio of products encompasses a range of cutting edge milking technologies, with a parlour solution to meet every milk producer’s needs – from the fully automated Fullwood Merlin robotic system and large scale herringbone and rotary installations, to more basic conventional milking systems.
“I look forward to developing Fullwood’s global presence, and in particular to developing the brand’s reputation in emerging markets such as North Africa, South East Asia and Eastern Europe.”
Justin has moved to the UK with his wife and young daughter and is looking forward to a long and successful life, living and working in Shropshire.
