LKQ Leisure and Marine appoints new business director

LKQ Leisure and Marine, part of LKQ UK and Ireland, has appointed Bob Wiffen as business director following the departure of Adam Ramsden, who served as managing director for six years.

The transition follows a period of operational changes for the firm — an aftermarket distributor of parts and accessories to the static & touring caravan, motorhome and marine sectors — including the relocation of the business to a central facility at Birch Coppice Business Park, Tamworth.

Mike Lewis, sales director, will continue to work closely with Wiffen, focusing on customer relationships and commercial growth.

Wiffen says: “I am excited to lead LKQ Leisure and Marine into its next chapter. Our focus will remain on enhancing the customer experience, optimising operational efficiencies and expanding our market presence. With the support of our dedicated team, I am confident we will achieve great things.”

In a statement, the company acknowledged Ramsden’s contributions, highlighting his role in overseeing business growth, relocation efforts and team development over the past six years.

With operations now based in Tamworth, LKQ Leisure and Marine says the business is “well-placed to deliver enhanced service levels, greater operational efficiency and an expanded product offering.”
