Hatton Textiles grows again

Exeter based Hatton Textiles’ latest campaign for new business starting in 2009 has resulted in 2 new members of staff. Richard King joined as Sales Manager last year and is now supported by Sarah Rooke as Sales Administrator.

The business which supplies towels to a mix of the UK’s greatest sports clubs and brands including St Andrews golf course, the Queens Racquet Club, Yonex and Harrods Signature has embarked on a major sales offensive including a new website, attendance at various exhibitions throughout the UK and both direct and telesales marketing.

Richard comments, ‘we are fortunate that we have the energy and financial resource to grow this business, however, we are already starting to see an increase in sales from some high profile organisations and without proper and efficient planning and co-ordination this could all be wasted. We spent a considerable amount of time and interviewed some excellent candidates prior to recruiting Sarah, who has the skill sets that we need to ensure that we deliver on our promises’.

Sarah Rooke who recently moved to the South West with her husband has proven herself throughout her career in logistics and transport. The attention to detail, need for effective systems and commitment to deadlines in a fast paced environment provides Sarah with the experience needed to help drive Hatton Textiles forward. As Sales Administrator Sarah will manage all new orders generated and ensure that they are fulfilled effectively, working closely with both clients and suppliers throughout each project; an essential part of the business which in Richard’s words ‘gives him the confidence to generate and develop bigger and higher profile accounts’. With new clients throughtout the UK and Western Europe it seems that the world is getting wrapped up in towels by Hatton Textiles!
