Managing Director of Anglo Pacific, Stephen Gray, has recently been appointed Deputy Chairman of the BAR Overseas Group.

Stephen has been in the industry for 26 years having started as a Pickfords management trainee in 1988.  He joined Anglo Pacific in 2009.

Speaking of his appointment, Stephen said, “I am very pleased to be appointed Deputy Chairman and I am looking forward to supporting the Chairman, Tony Tickner, as he continues with the excellent work already carried out by Ian Palmer and the rest of the Overseas Group Councillors.  We face some challenging times ahead because of difficult market conditions, so it is important that we continue to find ways to keep the BAR Overseas Group members ahead of the curve.”

The BAR Overseas Group has more than 50 UK companies who are specialists in international removals out of the UK, and is a subdivision of the main industry body – the British Association of Removers (BAR).  The Association is dedicated to promoting excellence in the removals industry for the benefit of members and customers.  Members are inspected annually to ensure they meet strict quality standards and must also subscribe to the Advanced Payment Guarantee which protects all customer pre-payments in the event of a company ceasing to trade.
