BHETA’s recent Annual General Meeting saw Duncan Singleton, Trading Director at Ultimate Products join the Board. This follows the retirement from the BHETA Board of Alastair Fisher, joint Managing Director of Taylor’s Eye Witness.

 

With over twenty years’ experience in the small domestic appliances sector, Duncan brings an abundance of expertise and insight to this role. Throughout his extensive time at Ultimate Products, the owner of iconic brands Salter and Beldray, he has played a key role in driving the company’s dynamic growth and expansion.  Duncan’s passion for household electricals, combined with his innovative mindset and alignment with Ultimate Products’ forward-thinking culture, has consistently propelled him to deliver market-leading innovation that resonates with consumers.

 

The full Board of BHETA therefore comprises:

  • Rythm Jain – CEO Avocet Hardware Group – President
  • Andrew Weiss – Chairman
  • David Holmes - Managing Director The DRH Collection - Treasurer
  • Will Jones - Chief Operating Officer
  • Stephen Richardson – Marketing Director
  • Clare Holland - Finance Director
  • Paul Boyce – Chief Executive Officer – QEP UK
  • Richard Walker – Managing Director - Eddingtons
  • Jonathan Collier - Managing Director - Monument Tools
  • Jane Mason – Managing Director – The Denby Pottery Company
  • Jon Langford – Managing Director – Croydex
  • Duncan Singleton – Trading Director – Ultimate Brands.

Commenting on the appointment, BHETA’s Chairman, Andrew Weiss said, “The whole Board is delighted to welcome Duncan, and I am sure that the wider membership will be equally pleased.  

“I would also like to thank Alastair for his great work over many years’ involvement in BHETA at Board level, including three years as President.  Alastair has a wealth of industry knowledge and experience, as has been self-evident by his many contributions to the association during this time.  In particular, he has also been instrumental in focussing BHETA on its lobbying initiatives, something which has been so well received by our members.”
