“I love being out on the road, meeting current and new customers, and I’m keen to spread the word on the benefits of InSinkErator food waste disposers and specialist kitchen taps.

“Importantly, I look forward to supporting, developing and increasing the prospects and success of our customers’ businesses too.”
