BROCKWAY Carpets’ Steve Glover has been promoted to national sales manager as part of the company’s continuing expansion plans.

He moves up from his previous role as commercial manager, having joined Kidderminster based Brockway in 2003 after working in the carpet industry much of his working life.

In his new role, Mr Glover will manage the firm’s 10-strong national salesforce with responsibility for expanding its extensive UK-wide network of the best independent retailers.

He said: “I am delighted to accept this new challenge. These are exciting times for the Brockway brand with a major product development programme underway and it is great to be part of our success.”

Sales director Shaun Lewis added: ”This is a very important position as we move forward, and having Steve’s calibre and experience is a huge asset to our team. Over the coming months his role will grow under plans to further consolidate our market position as a brand leader in manufacturing beautiful, premium quality carpets.”

Brockway has been designing and producing high quality carpets in Kidderminster since 1964.
