Combilift Ltd has appointed a new product manager responsible for Scotland and Northern Ireland. Anthony Rooney, who has been with Combilift for almost eight years, will add support to current Combilift dealerships in these areas.

Mr Rooney was initially involved in the production of the trucks then spent four years opening up new markets in the US, before moving back closer to home to take on his current position.

“Sales in Scotland grew by over 100% last year, and I expect this to continue throughout 2009,” said Mr Rooney. “In Northern Ireland I have identified increasing requirements for the Combilift range in manufacturing and engineering sectors.”
