A UAE division of Pegler is going from strength to strength as it continues to grow in the region.

Pegler, who has had representation in the Middle East for the last decade, see's its turnover grow from £5m to almost £30m in the region and as Paul Reasbeck, Export Director, retires a new but experienced team will be there to continue to develop the growth strategy.

“Paul has been pivotal in the growth and diversity that we have seen from our Dubai office and we know that the team that will succeed him will continue to seek new opportunities and support existing customers in this prosperous and forward thinking region,” said Phill Jackson Business Development and Marketing Director Pegler. “He has been a well-known and well respected member of our Middle Eastern team and we wish him every happiness as he leaves the company after almost 40 years’ service.”

Paul's son who will succeed him, has worked with his father for the last three years; gaining knowledge of the business, the wide range of products that the company manufacturers across all its brands and the export requirements across the globe.

“It seems like it was just yesterday that I began my career in the Export Department at our Yorkshire headquarters and I have enjoyed every minute of it,” said Paul. “I know that the team have the right strategy in place to ensure Pegler remains the brand of choice for plumbing and heating across the UAE and beyond and that Will, will play his own part continuing the Reasbeck name in the company.”

Will is to be responsible for Pegler Valve Sales as well as looking after sales in South America and the Caribbean. He has already gained experience in Europe and South America.

The Dubai office offers the full range of Pegler products to the local and global market including well-known brand such as Pegler Valves, VSH Tectite, VSH PowerPress, VSH Shurjoint and VSH XPress.
