Ed Stubbs Appointed Loadhog Managing Director

Ed Stubbs, who began his career in the United States with Loadhog's parent company, Gripple, joined the Sheffield-based reusable packaging innovator five years ago as a sales manager.

Ed, who lives in Sheffield, was appointed as Loadhog's general manager two years ago and now directs the company, confirming its self-rule as a Queen's Award winner with its unique Smartstak system.

Ed said: "This is a particularly exciting time for Loadhog as we bring all our operations under one roof, in a building with 250 per cent more space than previously. This will enable us to handle the increasing business as our products continue to make a dramatic impact on the reusable transit packaging market.

"I am delighted to be given the chance to steer Loadhog towards even greater success. Our burgeoning, dedicated sales team is eager and relishing the prospect of supporting the company's growth by delivering real benefits and value to more blue chip customers with an expanding range of truly innovative products."
