Horn appoints sales engineer to expanding Scottish market

1 min read

Horn Cutting Tools has appointed David Reekie as technical sales representative for Scotland.

Mr Reekie, who is a qualified engineer, has in-depth experience of the Scottish tooling market. He has previously worked as a tooling sales engineer and in a senior position with one of Scotland's leading subcontract machinists. The appointment reflects increasing demand for the company's products in the Scottish market. The Horn range has recently been expanded to include innovative new tooling specific to oil and gas industry applications, as well as heavier duty derivatives of existing lines such as the M275 groove milling system. These all have potential uses in Scotland's prominent offshore engineering sector. Horn's general manager, Mike Green, says: "Having our own 'local presence' in Scotland helps to underline our commitment to the market; it's something that we would have liked to have done before. The recent recession put it on hold but we now consider that the time is right. "We're very pleased to have David join the team. His established background in Scottish industry will, we anticipate, be a considerable asset." Mr Reekie will work alongside Horn's long standing Scotland-based distributor, Peter Campbell (Sales) Ltd, to promote new and existing products.
