ANDREW REACHES 25 YEARS MILESTONE AT... EAST MIDLANDS CERAMICS

Andrew Grundy recently celebrated his 25th year in service with East Midlands Ceramics Ltd.
 
EMC Tiles was formed in 1979 and Andrew started his career with the company in 1987. Originally based at our Mansfield Road showroom in Nottingham he later moved  to the company’s newly developed Southglade Park Flag Ship premises on Hucknall Road Nottingham and went on to play a major part in the sales and distribution growth of the business.

Andrew says; “Things have certainly changed from those early days. The tile industry has become more professional in what it has to offer, the products have changed, new materials are used for manufacture, fashions have moved on and there is now a lot more emphasis on standards and specifications. All of this has culminated in there being some fantastic products available in today’s market to meet the growing demands of our clients. Certainly East Midlands Ceramics have kept up-to-date with the tile industry innovations, along with achieving major awards within the highly regarded Tile Association which has all helped to create a lively and interesting company to work for. I am pleased to have made many friends between both working colleagues and clients alike. I very much look forward to the challenges ahead”.
 
Barry Slawson, Managing Director EMC Tiles states; “Long service is not unusual within our company, in fact 63% of our 30 staff have achieved between 10 and 30 years with us. We congratulate Andrew and wish him well for continued success in his important role with our company”.
