Ian Tait named Manufacturers’ Alliance ‘Member of the Year’ for Cheshire Group

Our Systems and Distribution Manager, Ian Tait, has been named ‘Member of the Year’ for Cheshire by the Manufacturers’ Alliance.

Ian has been part of the Manufacturers’ Alliance Cheshire group since its inception in 2018 and received the award at the group’s recent annual retreat. The award recognises the contribution of a particular member across a 12-month period and is voted for by each member of the group.

On receiving his award Ian said: “I’m really proud to be named Member of the Year, especially as my contribution has been recognised by my peers. Being part of the Manufacturers’ Alliance has been extremely beneficial, the advice I’ve received has been invaluable and I’ve been impressed by the honesty and openness of the group.”

Ian has been part of the team here at Palletower for 11 years, having originally joined as a Commercial Coordinator in 2007. During that time, he has served as Logistics Manager before making the move to Systems and Distribution Manager.

Palletower Managing Director, Matthew Palmer, said: “We’re extremely proud of Ian’s achievement and its testament to his hard work over the years. It’s important to Palletower to support the manufacturing industry in Cheshire and we can only benefit from sharing ideas and opinions with other industry leaders in the area.”
