Kevin

When Kevin began working for his family's business at 15, the thought of running the company never crossed his mind. This attitude changed very little despite working in almost every department, from the assembly line to the admin office, whilst attending college and university. Having trained for a career in IT, working life began in a small but successful software company, climbing the ladder of promotion to technical manager in 2003. However, at about the same time, the family business was at a crossroads with the directors (parents) considering retirement and the plausible sale of the company. Important decisions had to be made and, looking for new career challenges, Kevin eagerly stepped into the role of general manager, securing family history and tradition for a third generation. Kevin's knowledge and experience of the grooming industry has been passed down from previous generations, spanning more than 50 years. His time spent working in both production and sales has afforded him good technical knowledge, advising groomers on a variety of different products and services. Attending numerous industry events and making regular visits to key customers, Kevin's philosophy is to offer the industry guidance and guarantee.
