Lecico Bathrooms appoints new Chairman to UK Board

Lecico PLC the wholly owned subsidiary of Lecico Group has appointed Colin Sykes as their new Chairman to the board, replacing long serving Bill Acton who has decided to retire after over 10 years in the role.  Bill made a significant contribution to the industry and at Lecico Bathrooms he has led the growth and modernisation of the business into its current market position.

Colin has a long-standing history and is member of the Lecico group board. He brings with him years of bathroom experience, previously as CEO of bathroom specialist Aqualisa, along with senior management roles internationally at Ideal Standard and Sanitec.  Colin will support the UK board in executing its new strategy for growth alongside an ongoing commitment to investment in the UK organisation and new product development initiatives.

Lecico Bathrooms Managing Director, Antony Thompson commented; “We are obviously sad to see Bill go as he has played such a pivotal part in the growth of Lecico in recent years. He was inspirational and supportive to us all and we will miss him. We are however fortunate in securing Colin to the role of UK Chairman to carry on where Bill left off and help us drive our growth agenda to ensure we continue our strong performance in the UK market.”
