After 13.5 years working with Jack Wolfskin in the position of Senior National Accounts Manager, Nigel Collins recently took on the new position of Jack Wolfskin Country Manager for the UK & Ireland.
One of Nigel’s first appointments within his role was to look at the overall serviceability to all existing independent accounts.
In January 2023 Bleubird Distribution were assigned as Jack Wolfskin sales agents for the island of Ireland, and in a statement Nigel said ‘it gives me great pleasure to announce that Jack Wolfskin has signed an extended partnership with Bleubird Distribution that will see the Belfast-based distributor represent Jack Wolfskin here in our UK independent account marketplace – this is effective immediately.’
Nigel said ‘Since its founding in 2016, Bleubird has established a strong network of trusted retailers across the UK and Ireland with its considered portfolio of brands. It is emphatic that Jack Wolfskin’s outdoor products and company mantra will resonate with its sellers and their customers.
Bleubird Distributions’ addition to our family of global partners is a very exciting one. They are a team of young and energetic outdoor enthusiasts that we align closely with on many relevant points, from corporate responsibility to social and environmental impact.
For this reason, this partnership makes perfect sense as Bleubird Distribution joins Jack Wolfskin as our sales agent also now in the UK market.’
