Graph Tech Launches Graph Tech U.K.
Graph Tech Guitar Labs has launched Graph Tech U.K., a new direct U.K.-based operation designed to deliver stronger service, faster product availability and improved support for retailers, builders and musicians across the United Kingdom.
This development follows the wind-down of trading by Graph Tech’s long-time partners JHS. Establishing Graph Tech U.K. ensures a smooth transition while elevating the level of service U.K. customers can expect.
Graph Tech will work with Paul Smith, formerly managing director at JHS and his son, Billy, in servicing the U.K.
“I’ve known Paul Smith for a long time, and I’ve always looked
forward to our meetings, whether in U.S., Germany or China,” said Dave Dunwoodie, president of Graph Tech Guitar Labs. “I’m excited to work with him on our new U.K. venture. Paul brings a lot to the table as far as guitar, accessory and overall distribution knowledge, and I’m sure this will be a successful endeavor to help our U.K. customer base.”
Graph Tech U.K. is now officially operating and existing U.K. customers can continue ordering and
receiving support exactly as before. New retailers and builders can reach out for product information, stocking opportunities and technical assistance. Graph Tech also stated that its new U.K. warehouse will ensure faster delivery times, improved inventory levels and more reliable access to Graph Tech products.
