Kelkay, the market-leading manufacturer and distributor of aggregates, paving, fountains and garden features, has appointed ARC Southern Ltd to manage its south east sales division.

Complementing the Kelkay sales force in the south east of England will be ARC Southern's Andy Roe, formerly sales director at Solus; Andy Campion, who has represented many major garden centre brands; and Gary Collins. Collins joined ARC Southern this year to support its growing portfolio of accounts, which also includes Smart Solar, Crest and Pet Face.

Speaking of the appointment, Richard Pyrah, sales director at Kelkay, said: "We're delighted to welcome the team at ARC Southern to the Kelkay sales operation in the south east. We now have strong representation across the whole of the UK and Ireland and we'll be strengthening further before Glee 2014. This will ensure customers everywhere will enjoy the service and support they deserve."

By promoting aggregates, paving and fountains with eye-catching PoS, merchandising units and display stands, garden retailers have seen sales grow in these categories.

Kelkay's portfolio of brands includes Gardenstone®, Borderstone®, Build Mate, easyfountain® and Henri® providing retailers with single source of supply for a wide range of garden products.

Kelkay and its extended sales team will be exhibiting on stands A10-C11 and F06-E07 at Glee 2014, the garden industry's leading trade show at the NEC, Birmingham, 14-16 September.
