Specialist bird food manufacturer R & E Bamford has appointed Danielle Taylor to the new role of strategic development director, making her the fourth generation of the Bamford family to have a role at the company.
Danielle Taylor (nee Bamford) joins from investment bank J P Morgan, having worked in the City of London for over 12 years in asset management and commercial property development. When she starts on June 3, she will join her father Philip Bamford, uncle Alan Bamford and the recently-retired company secretary Joan Bullen, her godmother, who have been at the helm for the last 30 years.
R & E Bamford produces the Top Flight brand of bird food as well as operating a wholesale division supplying pet foods and products to support the distribution of the manufactured ranges. The company moved just before the new millennium to a new five-acre manufacturing and storage facility at Globe Mill, Leyland, Lancashire.
Taylor said: “I am excited to join a business with a strong track record of delivering quality products to its customers.
“I am bringing my strategic expertise to ensure that we continue to strengthen our capabilities, harness market opportunities, and progress the legacy from my great grandfather.”
