Lakes has appointed Kevin Hart as its new warehouse and logistics manager.
Kevin has 40 years of warehouse and distribution experience. Lakes said that he has joined the company with the remit of developing its warehouse management systems and strategies in order to maximise customer experience.
He said: “Lakes is an exciting company to be a part of right now, there’s so much work being done behind the scenes to make sure our customers are getting the best products and service possible so as a team, we are all moving in the same direction.
“My first meeting with the directors made it clear to me that this was an open and honest working environment, where everyone is pulling together as a team and knows their role. Communication is so key to the success of a business, particularly from a logistical perspective.
“My role now is to ensure that the warehouse and logistics team are working as effectively and efficiently as possible, while supporting the business in its wider goals, such as ensuring we are working with sustainability in mind at all times.”
Mike Gahir, Lakes’ managing director, added: “Kevin has hit the ground running and we are really excited to see how his experience and skills benefit Lakes and our customers.”
