ISN Europe, the UK subsidiary of Integrated Supply Network, North America’s largest independent tool and equipment distribution business, has recently announced some significant new additions to the Executive Management team.
Martin Gray has joined as CEO, an appointment that demonstrates the company’s ambition. Having previously held the position of CEO at Euro Car Parts, Martin played a significant role in the growth of that business over an 11 year period.
Additionally, Chris Coyle has taken the position of Commercial Director, where he will help lead the equipment division of the business. Chris is well known in the equipment sector, most notably for his time at Pro-Align, where he served as Sales Director.
Rob Croft has been given the role of Managing Director for the ToolTruck UK division of the business, and will be responsible for the immediate growth and some exciting restructuring of the tools side of ISN Europe. Rob held senior management positions at Andrew Page, and more recently ECP, for over 30 years. He has a huge knowledge of the automotive tools business.
James Boon, Executive Chairman of ISN Europe, commented on the new appointments.
“When we defined our plan for expansion in the UK, the Number 1 priority was to focus on getting the very best quality people, who fit culturally with the dynamic and very non-corporate style we embrace. From that point we set about building our ‘Dream Team’, and I believe the talent we have added to what is already an incredible collective of individuals is what will ensure we achieve the goals we have set ourselves. Our distributors, partners and customers can all expect to benefit from our unequivocal focus on making sure we are the company they enjoy working with the most”.
ISN Europe encompasses a number of different business entities including Hofmann Megaplan, Tyre Bay Direct, AMN Garage Assist, and ToolTruck UK. With Headquarters in Kimbolton, Cambridgeshire, the company employs circa 150 people and is a leading supplier of automotive tools and equipment to the tyre and automotive aftermarket.
