This move is part of a series of changes at COMAG, with the aim of enhancing our independent retailer offer and streamlining our wholesale compliance activities.
Sid Grigg (pictured), previously Supply Chain Manager for COMAG, takes on the management of the wide-ranging independent retailer activities that COMAG is involved with. Dean Russell, London Travel Development Manager, will actively support Sid in his new role.
Together with his team, Sid will work with publishers and independent retailers to determine their needs and devise compatible plans.
As a result of this shift in focus for Sid, COMAG’s Field Operations team will now be managed by Mark James, COMAG's Wholesale Communications and Performance Manager.
Steve Cripwell, Marketing Director for COMAG, says, “The importance of independent retailers to our business cannot be understated and the appointment of Sid in his new role will ensure we are more focused on driving additional sales activity through our biggest retail sector. In addition the appointment of Mark will enable a greater synergy between our head office and field-based teams.
“I’m delighted to announce these appointments, which further reinforce COMAG’s commitment to key areas in our publisher offer.”
