Keighley-based Cavalier Bathrooms has appointed David Gannon as its new managing director, succeeding Rob Harrison who will become the chairman of the company.
The appointment, which is effective immediately, comes as part of a strategy to enhance customer experience through new systems, and continuing to invest in UK manufacturing, a statement said.
David said: “I’m thrilled to be moving into the managing director position, having worked alongside Rob for three years. He has done a fantastic job in leading and innovating this company. We’ve had great success in increasing our manufacturing capabilities in our Keighley factory, and plan to build on this, enabling us to be more self-sufficient and less reliant on importing.”
“It’s time for us to truly embed our values into the business and demonstrate why we’re market-leading on both specification and value. Going forward we’ll be placing even greater importance on innovation and creating ways to make our customers’ lives easier. It’s about the experience, not just the end product.”
Rob Harrison, who has been at the company for 30 years, added: “It’s a really exciting time for us here at Cavalier and I’ve every faith David will take the business to the next level. The team and our customers are in great hands with David’s expertise and encouragement and I’m looking forward to watching the business go from strength to strength under his guidance.”
