Kevin Nash Group is one of the leading Carp Fishing Brands in the World.My aim was to grow the Nash brand amongst some of the larger tackle retailers while opening a number of smaller accounts through the introduction of some of the less expensive products resulting in expanding the company’s representation within the territory. I created business plans for each key account against measurable KPI’s in order to attain the required growth. After six years within the role the Nash brand had become the most represented carp brand within fishing tackle retailers across the North West of England and occupying more shelf space than any other. This resulted in a year on year increase in sales, doubling it in the first three years and creating a 200% increase over the full seven years of my tenure.
