Ben Wadeson, 33, has been appointed to the newly-created role of sales manager at JWP.

Chairman Jim Wilkinson said: “Ben has an extensive background within the garden industry and with supermarkets, which, combined with his energy and youth, will be invaluable in the plans JWP has for the year ahead and our longer-term future.”
He added that Wadeson would be “a perfect complement to Geoff Hounslea, our sales director appointed in November 2009”.
