Zagwear, Orange, N.Y., is continuing to grow its U.K. and European presence with the appointment of Daniel Hill as senior account manager.
Hill will lead the office with senior manager of global accounts Charlotte Hollidge as the U.S. promotional products distributor strengthens its European presence.
The pair is working closely with Zagwear’s U.S. offices to expand in the region. There are ambitious plans already in place to service enterprise clients in the U.K., Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Developments include the launch of multiple programs including creative, product design and procurement, e-commerce, warehousing/fulfillment, and distribution throughout the U.K. and EMEA.
“Zagwear is a merchandise player that is slightly under the radar in the U.K. at the moment, but working with Charlotte and the team, we aim to change that,” Hill said. “I’m looking forward to helping to steer and maximize our growth and presence in the U.K. and EMEA. We want to demonstrate to brands how Zagwear can help them deliver local and global solutions for their merchandise needs while driving down costs and creating efficiencies.”
“Since joining Zagwear approximately two years ago, we have kickstarted the U.K. operations, and it is now time to take things on to the next level,” Hollidge said. “I am really looking forward to implementing the exciting plans that the company has in place for the U.K. and EMEA.”
Toby Zacks, CEO of Zagwear, said the time is right to build a higher profile in the U.K. and EMEA.
“Our global clients are increasingly asking us to provide the same capabilities, level of service and quality that they get in the U.S., internationally,” Zacks said. “The world is becoming a smaller place for brands, which provides a great opportunity for us to deliver the Zagwear proposition in growing markets.
“In Dan and Charlotte we have two seasoned professionals with substantial experience in the U.K. promotional products sector,” he added. “We are fully aligned on the corporate initiatives, and it’s great to build the Zagwear presence in the region with these professionals. We will continue to focus on strategic growth relying on Zagwear’s experience and capabilities in critical areas such as technology, process, logistics, compliance and creative execution.”
