Garden wildlife product specialist, manufacturer and supplier CJ Wildlife has appointed Emma Johnson as its new head of sales for business-to-business in the UK.
Emma joins Shropshire-based CJ Wildlife from Suttons Seeds, where she has been national sales manager for the past two years.
“I am delighted to be joining CJ Wildlife and excited to add structure to the UK sales team,” she said.
“My biggest passion that sits alongside any product is service, supplying garden centres and independent retailers quality UK-manufactured products together with providing an excellent customer service is what any customer deserves, especially in these uncertain times.
“Myself and the sales team not only have passion for our product but understand the demand for supply and delivery – we are open for business and ready to despatch your order.”
NATIONAL TRUST
Emma will be managing a growing team responsible for selling the CJ Wildlife and National Trust Garden Wildlife Ranges to retailers throughout the UK, as well as working with partners in the construction, development and planning sector to create more sustainable habitats for wildlife under CJ’s professional division, Vivara Pro.
In 2020, the company launched a licensed range of garden wildlife care products with the National Trust and has pledged a minimum of £775,000 to support the organization’s conservation work over the five years of the agreement.
The range consists of 90 premium and specialist bird and wildlife foods, feeders, nest boxes, accessories, and mammal and insect habitats, all of which are now available to retailers across the UK.
Claire Smith, chief officer for partnerships, products & business development at CJ Wildlife, said: “We are delighted to be working with the National Trust and are very proud of the licensed product range we have launched. We are excited to have Emma join us and to support the business in growing our network of retail partners across the UK.”
