LBS Accessories Appoints Sales & Marketing Lead to Spearhead Retailer Push
Chris Burrett brings significant commercial and consumer electronics industry experience to the company. He joins LBS Accessories from InComm, where he led the successful creation of a new UK retail category of high street branded gift cards for sale through major high street multiples and supermarkets. Prior to this, he was with Virgin Mobile, first in channel marketing and later managing many of its most important external commercial and regulatory relationships. His earlier career included work with Dixons Stores Group and AC Nielsen. Chris says: “In today’s tough trading environment the winning retailers are those who work hard at keeping their competitive edge. However, in consumer electronics things move incredibly fast, and competing well means supplying what the consumers want, at the right price, immediately they want it – and that is really tough. They need suppliers and partners who will move fast, find new ways to meet that demand, and respond to their relationship and support needs. I believe that our strategy makes us an ideal partner for today’s market. I joined the team because I am looking forward to being a part of yet another success story. ” LBS Accessories is actively expanding its operational team to include key account management, supply chain management and after-sales support.
