ForgeFix makes key appointments

Fixings and fastener specialist ForgeFix has made several key appointments over the last few months.

Paul Swift has been appointed as managing director of ForgeFix, from Tyman PLC, one of the leading global players in window and door hardware manufacture, where he was head of sales at Zoo Hardware. Swift’s focus will be on changing how the company approaches its supply chain coupled with a return to the ‘ForgeFix way’.

The company has also appointed a new head of marketing, Rebecca Fortescue-Halliwell, who has a depth of experience in the fixings and fasteners sector, including Swiftec Group, SPARKA UK Ltd and T.I.Midwood & Co Ltd (TIMCO). She will be proactively supporting merchant customers and leading the company’s ‘Voice of the Customer’ initiative, designed to put the merchant at the heart of everything it does.

Steve Moore joins the business as product support demonstrator and will become a familiar face in merchant branches up and down the country. Moore has a trade background and will demonstrate the ForgeFix family of brands, which includes Spectre, Coreplus and ForgeFast.
