DARYL BIDS FAREWELL TO LONGEST SERVER AND THANKS LONGSTANDING EMPLOYEES - Wednesday, November 15, 2006 

Click to View Larger Image Wallasey-based premium showering products manufacturer, Daryl, has held a celebration to bid a fond farewell to a retiring member of staff who has been with the company since it was formed 39 years ago, and has praised the employees who have served 20 years with the company.

John Kenney joined Daryl when he was 16 years old. He started as a general trainee and went on to hold several different positions with the company over the years, including time on the shop floor and working within the sales and design & development departments.

John commented: "It's been a great experience overall - particularly the different people I've worked with and the challenges I've faced and overcome. My favourite roles have been those where I've worked directly with our customers and worked with them to find solutions to any problems that might arise.

"If I'm being honest there was no special reason for me joining Daryl at the time, it was a good job at a new company though so I thought I'd give it a go. However it has been the people at Daryl that have made it so special over the years and why - as well as the variety of jobs I've held - I've stayed so long."

John is retiring aged 55 and is now looking forward to travelling and spending more time with friends and family.

Other employees praised at the event were Trevor Ownes, Production - 21 years;
Peter Cater, Production - 20 years; John Hudson, Production - 26 years; Sue Jones, Area Sales Manager - 24 years; Lawrence Foster, Production - 24 years; John Yates, Production - 23 years; Bob Simmons, Bespoke - 29 years; and Rob Burns, Compliance -18 years.

John Porter, Daryl's technical director, concluded: "Whilst Daryl takes pride on the quality of our products and levels of customer service it's our people that really make us stand out from the crowd.

"Thanks to people like John Kenney, our other long-serving staff and the rest of our employees, Daryl has been going strong for nearly 40 years and is looking forward to a bright future."
