Having been involved in the freight industry, since around 2000, Peter joined our Italian import team in July 2011. His previous role was handling European Imports, so he stepped in quite nicely and has been plugging away ever since. A bit like Steve Bossons, very little phases him and he just quietly ‘get’s on with it’.
As our import services have grown, moreover after Brexit, it became evident that we needed to appoint someone to harmonise the processes across all import departments. For all of us, Brexit was a learning curve, no matter how much knowledge you had ‘back in the day’ before we joined the EU. Peter was quick to absorb the new import procedures, and it became clear that he was the right person to be promoted to Import Manager.
Whilst he still has a major lean towards the Italian import services, he helps steer the other road freight import departments, sharing with them his newly found knowledge.
