A new face has joined the team at Adboards; the Bolton based manufacturer and distributor of planning and presentation products.

Heading up the Business Development function at Adboards is Mark Gentry. An experienced sales professional, Gentry is no stranger to planning products, nor the education and stationery sectors, having headed up OfficeData, the Dutch owned office products company and edding (UK) Ltd.

"There are tremendous opportunities for planning and presentation products right now," states Gentry. "I am looking forward to extending the Adboards portfolio to a wider audience and establishing a new team which will give our business strategic sales direction and focus."

Paul Howe, Managing Director of Adboards welcomed Mark to the company by saying: "Mark has a wealth of valuable sales and marketing experience both in markets where we already have a presence and also in many we wish to exploit further. He has an excellent track record and his role is to focus on growing and enhancing existing sales plus building new business. We believe in investing in the business and people and Mark’s contribution will go a long way towards unlocking more potential and achieving our strategic goals."
