During his career with the company, Clive has played a significant role in the sales growth and creative development of the Duresta and SBI International business, helping to build many of the long-standing relationships and commercial successes that remain central to the group today.
“His contribution, leadership and commitment over three decades have left a lasting impact across the organisation and amongst customers, suppliers and colleagues alike,” James Thompson, Chief Executive Officer, commented.
