He joined J & E Hall in 1977 where he worked as a Design and Sales Engineer (Refrigeration) in Kenya before returning to the UK in 1981 to progress up the career ladder. In the late 1990’s Dave was promoted to director level, working alongside the senior team and was instrumental in rebuilding the company to provide a strong foundation for growth and development.
