Marcus Fischer has been appointed commercial director at Fortec, where he will work closely with the pallet network’s three regional commercial managers.
Fischer and his team will be responsible for overseeing volume growth within the pallet operations of each of the company’s 68 licensees.
As Fortec’s previous financial director, he will continue to take responsibility for finance matters but at board level.
Fischer’s first task in his new role was to appoint Sophie Parker as the newly created position of brand manager, which will see her focus on management and development of all components of the Fortec brand, such as marketing, media relations and communication.
