Gillian Coldwell brings 27 years’ experience to bi-fold experts
Posted on 20/07/2015
Bi-fold door specialist TWR Bifolds has appointed a new National Sales Manager to spearhead sales.
The new appointment follows intense and prolonged demand for its range of aluminium products.
Gillian Coldwell lives in West Yorkshire and has 27 years’ experience in the glazing industry, having previously held positions at leading hardware suppliers Avocet and Fab&Fix.
In her new role at TWR Bifolds, Gillian will focus on promoting the benefits of TWR and its aluminium product range, which includes bi-fold doors, wide-span patio doors and vertical sliders, to installers across the UK.
The appointment comes after a successful year for TWR Bifolds – the fabricator grew 20% over the past 12 months – and Managing Director Terry Richardson hopes to continue this growth into the future.
Terry comments: “I’m delighted to welcome Gillian to the team. On top of offering a first-class product range, we offer a stand-out level of service such as super-fast lead times on colour, a major benefit to installers.
“Colour is a selling point we are keen to push and capitalise on colour; as Gillian moves into the role of promoting our aluminium products.”
Gillian Coldwell comments: “It’s exciting to be working for a company which is doing so well at the moment and investing in its future.
“Colour is king at TWR and I’m looking forward to using my industry knowledge and experience to help drive sales of coloured aluminium products.”
Investment in an in-house colour spraying facility means TWR Bifolds can supply their aluminium products in any RAL colour on six-day lead times, helping installers offer more choice to the consumer and turnaround colour jobs even quicker.
This extends to dual-colour options including the installer-voted most popular colour, white and grey, which TWR have on stock, ready to go, allowing customers to capitalise on the most popular colour combination in the bi-fold door market.
TWR Bifolds supplies coloured aluminium products to installers nationwide but is also keen to partner with single product fabricators to help them expand their product range without incurring additional manufacturing costs.
