Entertainment UK appoints Rob Salter as Sales & Marketing Director

August 10th 2007

Entertainment UK (E.UK), the UK’s leading wholesale distributor of home entertainment products, today announces the appointment of Rob Salter as Sales & Marketing Director.

Rob returns to E.UK on September 3rd, following his post as CEO of Blueprint Digital, two years as Group Vice President for Wal-Mart Global Sourcing and a period as Managing Director of Handleman UK. He initially joined the Woolworths Group in 1982 as a Management Trainee, working his way up through the Group to his last position as Head of Sales & Marketing for E.UK.

Rob takes up the role at a time of considerable growth for E.UK, including several recent and significant new business wins. The role has been created following the imminent departure of Ian Foster, Commercial Director, whose duties will be carried out by Rob and a new - as yet to be appointed -  Trading Director.

Lloyd Wigglesworth, Managing Director of E.UK comments:
“Rob returns to E.UK with a wealth of commercial experience and knowledge of the retail and wholesale distribution industries, which will prove invaluable as our business continues to evolve. Recent developments within E.UK have increased the complexity of our customer base and supplier relationships, and with Rob in place we can ensure that we maintain the high level of focus required on both our existing and new customers.”

Rob Salter comments:
“I am very much looking forward to returning to E.UK at such an exciting time in the company’s development. E.UK’s recent growth has been very impressive, and I am eager to start working with our customers towards even more success.”
