Further senior appointment made at Boxshop

A further senior appointment has been made at Boxshop, as it embarks on a period of investment and expansion.

Keith Barclay has joined the business as Head of Sales, assuming the role currently held by Pat Bonar, who will be retiring in the summer after almost 33 years at the company.

“As the business is entering a new and exciting phase, it was necessary to ensure the senior team can execute forthcoming investment and strategic growth plans after a hugely successful period and to ensure a smooth transition as Pat leaves,” said Jennifer Riddell, Managing Director, Boxshop and Boxes and Packaging Scotland. “Keith brings years of experience in the industry, and I know that he will be a great asset to the team in Scotland.”

Keith joins the business from DS Smith where he has over 24 years industry experience in a senior level sales role.

“Boxshop has evolved to be a superb business, of which Pat has been a huge part, and we wish him well in his retirement,” said Jennifer. “As we enter the next chapter in the Boxshop success story, I know that our team will continue to deliver the highest levels of service and innovation as one of the leading suppliers of corrugated packaging solutions in Scotland.”
