Label manufacturer Interket UK has announced it will wish a fond farewell to Derek Maskell on December 23, 2019 after 40 years of service.
Maskell joined the Whaley Bridge site back in 1979 under its former identity, Stampiton. Now part of the Interket Group of Companies, the Derbyshire-based site serves a wide range of sectors, including manufacturing, security, logistics, chemicals, dairy, food, beverage and horticulture.
Commenting on his time with Stampiton/Interket UK, Maskell says, “I have witnessed many changes over four decades in the label industry. Not one for keeping still, my next challenge will be to fill my time in my retirement. However, I am sure my family will help with that.”
Tim Pattison, UK sales and operations director, adds, “Derek will be sorely missed by everyone at Interket, a true gent and popular character. He has been a pivotal figure in the historical growth and expansion of the business, having been the 'Commander' and 'Chief of Sales' for many years his extensive knowledge and expertise has built the longstanding relationships we cherish today with our loyal customers. In excess of 40 years in one industry, let alone the same business, is a true testament to Derek's dedication and effervescent personality. We all wish him a very happy retirement.”
