Hamilton Litestat appoints Tony Coad as its new Area Sales Manager for the east London and east Anglia regions.

Having held positions in the lighting and electrical industry for over 30 years, Tony brings a wealth of experience to Hamilton. He began his career at WF Electrical, gaining distribution and wholesale experience in roles that spanned sales, buying, data analysis and product management there and at Hagemeyer and Newey & Eyre, now collectively known as Rexel.

He has also spent 11 years acquiring sales and business development experience at manufacturing companies LED Group ROBUS, Dialight and Waldmann Lighting. It’s from the latter that Tony joins Hamilton in his new sales role covering east London and east Anglia.

“Hamilton is a significant and trusted player within the electrical industry, and I plan on deploying my extensive experience to support its growth plans and to drive business and sales in the areas of east London and east Anglia,” says Tony. “Hamilton’s first-class product range and quality manufacturing is supported by a family ethos that I’m very much looking forward to becoming a part of.”

Gavin Williams, Hamilton’s Head of Marketing, adds: “Tony joins us at an exciting time of growth and development, particularly in the expansion of the brand’s product offering. Tony’s experience stood out and we’ve no doubt that this will stand him in good stead to support our increasing product range and utilise the opportunities that this presents within the market.”
