Martin Rickards to retire

6 February 2007

Komori UK chairman Martin Rickards is to retire at the end of March. During the last two years, he has been md of Komori International Netherlands, and a board member of Komori International Europe. His major role over that period has been to implement the expansion of Komori's Northern European network, which now comprises 18 distributors.

He became md of Komori UK in 1991, moving from Harris Corp. Over his 35 years in printing, he has enjoyed extensive influence across the industry, in his capacities on the IPEX management team for over 20 years, two terms as chairman of Picon, his presidency of Ipex 1993 and his position on the APMI council.

Of his retirement, he says: "I will greatly miss the industry which has provided me with such an interesting and rewarding career, but having worked away from home for the last 16 years, I am looking forward to reducing my golf handicap, contributing more time to charity work and keeping my garden in order."

Neil Sutton, Komori UK's md, comments: "Martin has been responsible for the continued strengthening of Komori in the UK and across the rest of Europe. His leadership has been invaluable."
