Macpac - one of the UK's largest family-run thermoformed packaging manufacturers - has welcomed Lloyd and Jim Kershaw to the business.
The sons of owner and Managing Director, Graham Kershaw, the two have joined Macpac as part of a long-term plan designed to drive the business to the next generation of sustainable packaging.
The Kershaw brothers bring nearly two decades combined experience in design, marketing, and engineering, specializing in sustainability from outside the industry.
Managing Director Graham said that "The key to success in generational businesses is to be able to bring fresh and independent ideas from diverse fields into an already successful and well-established management team."
The brothers certainly achieve this with Jim joining after spending nearly a decade working in the pharmaceutical marketing consultancy industry. His master's degree in environmental sciences and clean technology bring insights into the needs of clients and patients in the medical sector, whilst having a deep knowledge of modern manufacturing.
Jim is excited by the challenges of developing new production techniques to keep improving Macpac's environmental strengths.
Lloyd said: "My passion is delivering brilliant, creative and sustainable solutions for clients, the objectives are the same at Macpac and I will enjoy contributing my different skillsets into such a dynamic and creative team."
