The introduction of the
monitors to the British
market came through an
appointed agent, but so

that Hantarex set up their

Wright receives goods
when they arrive, and
looks after dispatch. Last
but not least there is Nick
Neophetou, the technical
engineer who deals with
servicing, and advises
customers if they have
any problems. He always
goes along with the first
consignment of monitors
sent to a new customer.
“I realise what a good
team they all make up
when I'm out selling,”
said Stuart Olley. ‘It’s
very valuable to have a
team like that.” Things
were very busy at the time

Stuart told us.

Many questions

Stuart.
