Golden Coast Expands Sales Team
Swimming pool wholesaler Golden Coast has added three new faces to its Barnstaple-based team.
Danielle Laity joined the team at the end of 2016 as the first of the new technical account managers. She has a strong understanding of the needs and support required for businesses in the industry.
Her new colleague Scott Jones brings a wealth of practical knowledge with him. Since his appointment in February, his range of experience - from working with large teams working as an independent contractor – has proved to be an asset. The latest technical account manager to be appointed is Mitchel
Percy. Mitchel brings some great technical knowledge with him to compliment his customer service skills. His electrical know-how and

It is no coincidence the up market showroom is situated in the heart of premier football territory with several top name soccer stars already on the books.
“The showroom had to reflect the luxury pool market in which we excel,” said David. “We have created a buying experience targeted to the customers we serve. “But it is also practical as everything on display can be ordered and included in final design options,” he added. The champagne
launch included many of their existing clients with a suitably high-end raffle in aid of local charity Kidscan for research into childhood cancers. *You can see more
