Big changes for Danish Fly Company<br />

Denmark-based distributor The<br />

Fly Company is embarking on<br />

a new journey, with a relocation,<br />

a strategic overhaul and the<br />

addition of two more brands to<br />

its portfolio.<br />

Over the past two years,<br />

the company has engaged<br />

in a meticulous examination<br />

of its operations, leading to<br />

transformative changes.<br />

As it moves forward, it has<br />

become the exclusive European<br />

distributor for Ewing feathers,<br />

renowned for its unique<br />

products that it says elevate the<br />

art of fly tying.<br />

In addition, The Fly<br />

Company has also expanded its<br />

distribution network to include<br />

TFO fly rods in select European<br />

countries.<br />

Suzuki GB’s Marine<br />

Division says changes to<br />

its sales team will further<br />

enhance its ability to<br />

respond to the needs<br />

of the dealer network<br />

and continue delivering<br />

exceptional customer<br />

service.<br />

The first change is the<br />

appointment of Steve<br />

Warren as its newest sales<br />

account manager, looking<br />

after Suzuki’s presence<br />

predominantly in the north of<br />

England and Wales, as well as<br />

in Southern Ireland.<br />

Steve is no stranger to<br />

the marine industry and<br />

already has extensive product<br />

knowledge, having spent<br />

eight years working in Suzuki<br />

GB’s technical department<br />

and being hands on in the<br />

company’s workshop facility.<br />

He has also supported the<br />

team at key events such as<br />

the Southampton Boat Show,<br />

Seawork and BoatLife as<br />

well as assisting various key<br />

boat builder and commercial<br />

TFO, a strong and wellrenowned<br />

brand, brings a legacy<br />

of quality and innovation to the<br />

fly fishing community.<br />

The decision to relocate<br />

to a better-suited location<br />

in Randers is strategic and<br />

reflects The Fly Company’s<br />

commitment to maximising<br />

and optimising its structure<br />

and capabilities. This move is<br />

aimed at enhancing operational<br />

efficiency, fostering innovation<br />

and ensuring a seamless<br />

experience for fly fishing<br />

enthusiasts.<br />

The full Flyco team,<br />

comprised of seasoned<br />

professionals, brings a wealth<br />

of experience as they work to<br />

invigorate the organisation’s<br />

vision and strategy, ensuring a<br />

The second change<br />

continues Suzuki’s desire<br />

to promote from within,<br />

as existing team member<br />

Ben Green becomes events<br />

coordinator and account<br />

manager and will take on the<br />

responsibility for a number of<br />

selected key accounts.<br />

Ben has been with Suzuki<br />

GB for over five years,<br />

working first in the Dealer<br />

Services department and<br />

then, more recently, as events<br />

coordinator for the ATV and<br />

Marine team.<br />

commitment to excellence and<br />

the continuation of fly fishing<br />

traditions.<br />

Head of sales Christoffer<br />

Thorsager explained: “We<br />

believe that our new location<br />

in Randers will serve as a hub<br />

for innovation and will allow us<br />

to maximise and optimise our<br />

capabilities.<br />

“With the full Flyco team and<br />

strong financial backing, coupled<br />

with our new location, we are<br />

excited about the future and the<br />

opportunities it presents.”<br />
