Powercell Extends its National Coverage
Industrial battery specialist, PowerCell, has acquired a 50% stake in Sheffield-based firm Motive Power Services (MPS) as part of its nationwide expansion programme, enhancing its sales and service capability into Lincolnshire, Lancashire, Yorkshire, the North East and Scotland.
At the same time the company has recruited two new sales professionals to cover areas in the North West, South West, South Wales and Midlands. Neal Thorp joins PowerCell as a highly experienced industrial battery specialist, whilst their other new recruit, Nik Bridger, brings a strong background in sales within the forklift truck sector.
Already a leading provider of industrial battery products to the materials handling market, PowerCell has achieved an average growth of 24% per annum over the past five years, and this latest venture is designed to maintain that momentum.
