Charlie Rich (32) being recruited as export sales manager for worldwide sales replacing Barry Ledger who is retiring after 30 years at the company and Carole Metcalfe joins Tong Peal as sales and marketing co-ordinator.

Simon Lee (41), who has been with the company for the past 7 years has been promoted to sales manager responsible for UK pack house.

Tong Peal, which employs 143 at its Spilsby headquarters and has a turnover over £10 million, created the new positions and promotions in response to continued growth and increasing worldwide sales.

The sales team will be responsible for Tong Engineering sales – incorporating UK farm and pack house and Tong Peal Recycling. 

“Tong Peal has an excellent reputation in the UK farming and pack house industry. The vision is to become the world’s best potato and vegetable handling machinery provider, in terms of product quality and overall service. The chance to play a part in developing such a business was simply too good to turn down,” says Charlie Rich .

Mrs Metcalfe said, “Like Charlie, I am very excited about playing a key role in part in the development of Tong Peal. It is an ambitious company and wants to establish the best business possible and this is something we’re all committed to achieving.”

Edward Tong is delighted with the appointments: “Charlie and Simon bring with them great experience having worked in agriculture for many years. Tong Peal is enjoying a buoyant period of growth and development. Although sad to lose Barry after thirty years, we pride ourselves on attracting the best possible people to help us realise our ambitions and by recruiting Carole and Charlie, promoting Simon to work alongside our existing staff, we now have an excellent team in place and are looking forward to advancing our plans in 2011.”
Charlie, who brings with him over 15 years of experience working with Tong equipment from Scotts and Burdens, and Carole will be based at Tong Peal’s main site in Spilsby, Lincolnshire.
