JWF - Process Instrumentation

This was a training session for staff about the new JWF objectives and business plan for the next 5 years. Kenneth Fairbairn, Managing Director, spoke about his vision for the company and how this meant overcoming challenges - i.e. bursting a few bubbles. These "bubbles" are with regards to sales and margins, customer service targets, and especially employees' efforts to help the business grow.

The targets discussed are challenging but achievable, if the JWF team pulls together to embrace the changes.

These changes include:

Launch of new marketing material

Download our new Sales and Marketing brochure

JWF Sales Director, Martin Kerlin, says:

“This brochure marks a new chapter in the continuous development of JWF. It reflects the expertise and capability within the company. Most importantly, this brochure raises customers’ awareness of JWF as a resource that will add real vale to their business by delivering successful solutions.”

Building expansion

JWF will be expanding its offices in order to accommodate more people. The works will commence mid-August 2007.
