Double transfer ‘deal’ within the Gripple family

Responding to increasing Loadhog business, two experienced sales people have been transferred from its ‘sister’ company, Gripple and are now applying their proven expertise at the Sheffield-based returnable packaging innovator.

For the last eight years, 28-year-old Damien Montagne, who was born in Lyon, and Sheffield-born 27-year-old Giles Moore, have promoted the ‘endless’ applications of Gripple’s unique wire joining and tensioning devices within the agriculture, vineyard and greenhouse markets across Europe, in Australasia, Ireland and the UK.

Based in Sheffield, as Loadhog’s European sales manager, Damien is now focusing on making wide ranging, commercial sectors in mainland Europe aware of and using the company’s supply chain solutions, such as its matchless Pally/Lid system.

Also working out of the city as sales manager, Giles is committed to developing Loadhog business within the same industries, not only in this country but also Scandinavia, with Asia and North America soon to be targeted.

Giles said: "Our aim is to turn Loadhog into a multi-million company, with a full range of products employed across the world in an array of markets to compare favourably with Gripple’s export success."
