Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Workwear specialist Supertouch, has appointed Martin Russell as Footwear Sales Manager.

The appointment follows Supertouch's recent partnership with Aimont, one of Europe's leading safety shoe manufacturers. Russell will play a key role in supporting the continued growth of the company's existing range, as well as building up the reputation of Aimont nationwide.

Russell previously spent eight years as an Account Manager at Arco. He joins Supertouch from his most recent managerial position at SCA, where he was primarily responsible for driving customer growth for its range of Hygiene products.

With a strong background in both sales and PPE, more specifically gloves and footwear, and with a proven track record, Russell is well placed to provide Supertouch with the skills and support needed for the continued growth of its footwear range, while heralding the launch of the new collection.

Russell said: "I'm really looking forward to joining the team at Supertouch and taking on this exciting new role. The business has invested a great deal in recent years and Aimont is just one example of this, so I am delighted to be starting at such a pivotal time for the company. Safety footwear is an essential part of workwear for many, and safety must never be compromised. Aimont is already well-respected among industry professionals and I’m thrilled to be helping to promote it."
