Trilanco has appointed a new international team to support the continued growth and expansion of its agricultural, equine and pet products wholesale business overseas.
Worldwide delivery was previously available from Trilanco but in response to demand, new roles have been created so that the business can provide a dedicated service to international customers and enhance export processes.
Marylise Silk is now Head of International Business Development. Marylise joined Trilanco in January 2017 as Business Development Manager and has contributed significantly to the growth of the wholesaler’s product catalogue over the last 12 months.
Danielle Jones has been promoted to International Sales Executive. Danielle has been a part of Trilanco’s sales team since 2015 having worked as Customer Services and Sales Co-ordinator before being promoted to Outbound Sales Team Leader. Danielle is R-SQP qualified and achieved Gold Standard SQP status in 2016.
Rona Jones has joined Trilanco as International Sales Co-ordinator. Rona will assist Danielle placing international sales orders and will work closely with the warehouse team to ensure the correct procedures and paperwork for each country are used. Rona is fluent in German and Thai and has previous customer service and sales experience.
Alongside these new customer-facing roles, Michael Moore has been promoted to International Despatch Co-ordinator and is responsible for overseeing the despatch of international consignments. Michael is supported by a growing number of warehouse operatives who pick and pack orders to be sent overseas.
Marylise said: “Trilanco’s international strategy was accelerated when we became the exclusive trade distributor for Westgate EFI brands including Gatehouse and Mark Todd. There are exciting long-term growth opportunities given the appeal of these brands and many other quality products that we stock.
“The brands and products that we can distribute internationally are evolving and we’re in the early stages of developing a product catalogue specifically for international customers.”
Martin Balmer, Managing Director of Trilanco said: “We want to keep growing in smart ways and establishing a new team to drive our international wholesale business is an invaluable asset.
“I’m delighted that a number of the new roles have been filled by internal promotions. We have a truly dedicated team of employees with many years’ experience and it’s great to be able to recognise and reward hard work.”
Trilanco will be exhibiting at international trade shows including Global Pet Expo in Florida 21-23 March, Interzoo in Nuremburg 8-11 May and Spoga Horse in Cologne 2-4 September 2018.
