BROMPTON Jo Staveley has joined the Brompton Board as a non-executive Director. British entrepreneur Staveley has led the
growth of High Street stalwarts L. K. Bennett and Cath Kidston. Described as an astute businesswoman, with
a natural understanding of product development, retail and brand awareness, Steveley will bring her expertise to further improve the customers’ experience of buying and owning a Brompton. Brompton sells through over 1,500 retailers in 41 countries across the globe, as well as through its own-branded Brompton Junction stores in Japan, China, Germany and Holland.
SILVERFISH has announced the addition of two new road-based account managers working within the South West and the South East regions. Taking up the role in the South West is Rob
Stobart who brings with him over 15 years of cycle trade experience and a vast knowledge of the industry and dealers within the area.

Having previously raced BMX and MTB to an elite level, Stobart’s cycling skills are as strong as his sales experience, Silverfish says. Also joining the Silverfish team in 2013 is
Chris Archer. An active mountain biker too, Archer has raced to a national level and is again penning the Mega Avalanche in his diary for this season. Having held senior accounts and sales manager roles for a number of years, Archer aims to be an asset to all Silverfish dealers within the South East. Silverfish sales manager Richie Rowland said:
“We’re excited to have these two new representatives join our excellent sales team
Paul Lasenby
and with such knowledge and experience we’re confident that our dealers will be happy to welcome them too.”
SRAM has had a reshuffle and as of the start of this year, SRAM Deutschland’s general management team will be run by Bernhard Johanni, Richard Rüttiger and Marcus Schneider.
HOTLINES has appointed Paul Lasenby as the new South East accounts manager. Already a familiar face in the trade to some, Lasenby can now be contacted on paul@hotlines-uk.com
