Ihs Solutions Limited

After an epic second spell at Iceland i am now semi retiring to support several selected companies in various capacities which include sales, marketing, buying, product launch systems, packaging and of course plastic removal. I leave a legacy of achievements including a simple Own Label launch system, sophisticated specification system and Packaging on shelf that matches or betters any in the market. In addition, with the support of the board of Iceland I have been privileged to drive the move out of plastics- a world first! I even had my 5 minutes of fame on TV. You cannot achieve all this without support and a team, and I have relished the great backing from colleagues in every department of Iceland from product development, buyers, design, HR, stores and so on. Thanks, must also go to all the Packaging and Product Suppliers who have been on the massive transition out of plastics, introduction of Digital Print and rapid reaction to business needs. The future looks excellent.
