Croxsons, the 150 year-old B-Corp certified family-owned business that supplies glass packaging for the food and drink sector, has extended its commercial team with the appointment of Matthew Howarth as Customer Growth Manager.
Matthew joins the company at an exciting time in its development, following the recent launch of its ‘Rightweight®’ glass packaging solution and of the British-made ‘Sovereign’ sparkling wine bottle.
Matthew brings with him considerable commercial experience having worked previously in B2B and B2C software sales, and is looking forward to creating new business and growth opportunities through product development and strategic partnerships.
“I’m very process-driven and enjoy identifying a problem, working through it and finding the best way forward,” said Matthew. “I’m looking forward to being part of the Croxsons team and helping the business grow at such an exciting stage of its development.”
In his spare time, Matthew enjoys fly fishing, clay pigeon shooting and football. He is also a keen gym-goer, and is enjoying settling into life in the UK after relocating from South Africa.
“We are delighted to welcome Matthew to the Croxsons team,” commented Josh Webster, Head of Brand. “His wealth of experience will be of great value as we move forward in our dedication to providing better packaging solutions for the food and drink sector.”
