Lecico Bathrooms has announced it has appointed Colin Sykes as its new chairman, succeeding Bill Acton who is leaving Lecico after 10 years in the role.
Sykes has served previously as a member of the Lecico group’s board and has a wealth of experience in the bathroom market.
Previously, he worked as chief executive of manufacturer Aqualisa and has also held senior management roles at companies such as Ideal Standard and Sanitec.
In his role as chairman, Sykes will be supporting the company’s new growth strategy, as well as maintaining its commitment to invest in new product development initiatives.
Lecico Bathrooms’ managing director Antony Thompson said: “We are obviously sad to see Bill go as he has played such a pivotal part in the growth of Lecico in recent years. He was inspirational and supportive to us all and we will miss him. We are, however, fortunate in securing Colin to the role of UK chairman to carry on where Bill left off and help us drive our growth agenda to ensure we continue our strong performance in the UK market.”
