Josh Pitman follows in his father's footsteps
Entrepreneur Bob Pitman launched Paddock Wood-based Priory Business Group back in 1989, just three months after this son Josh was born. Now having watched the company grow and develop and having helped his father out during school and university holidays, Josh has joined the business.
"Most entrepreneurs would agree that what they could really do with is another one of them," says Bob. "Having Josh join us is even better than that - as he brings with him a wide range of strengths and talents, as well as qualifications. He's a real asset to the business."
Sports-mad Josh, who plays both rugby and water polo, recently graduated from the University of Wales, Aberystwyth, with a degree in Sports Science.
He has joined Priory Business Group as a salesman, with a particular focus on promoting what Priory Office Supplies offers to businesses in the local area.
One of Priory Business Group's four divisions, Priory Office Supplies offers everything a business needs to guarantee an office runs smoothly, backed up with excellent customer service and an honest approach.
"I really admire and respect how Bob has managed to develop Priory Business Group from the ground up and feel proud to be representing such a reliable, trustworthy and efficient company," says Josh. "My goals include meeting more people like the interesting and engaging people I've met so far, increasing our profile locally and providing solutions, support and supplies to companies throughout the South East and, indeed, beyond to the rest of the UK and Europe."
Priory Business Group is a very active member of The West Kent Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Josh has already attended some of the organisation's networking events.
Adds Bob: "I am extremely proud that Josh is now ‘officially' part of the business. He has grown up with Priory and has got into involved in lots of ways over the years, often in a very practical way. When we moved to Paddock Wood two years ago he helped us to move 20,000 archive boxes."
