DCUK, The Original Wooden Duck Company, has appointed Jeff Norman as UK Sales Manager. Jeff, who previously worked for Heaven Sends, brings over 30 years gift trade experience to his new position.
He said: “I am delighted to be joining a forward-thinking business at a very exciting time. I am looking forward to working with and supporting retailers to help grow retail sales of this strong and successful brand.”
By following a consumer-focused approach to their brand advertising, service and promotional activity, DCUK has seen record levels of interest and engagement from a passionate fanbase of collectors for their hand-crafted and painted original bamboo characters.
As a result, Jeff’s role will be strongly focused on helping current trade partners to capitalise on the demand and enthusiasm that’s out there for DCUK – as well as working with new potential stockists in key towns and cities.
Craig Wensley, Managing Director and Owner of DCUK, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Jeff to the senior leadership team. He brings a wealth of experience that will really benefit the business, our existing customers – and new, like-minded stockists that join the DCUK family.”
Jeff is attending Spring Fair at the NEC from 5-8 February, which will be his first trade show working with his new DCUK colleagues.
