PaperlinX gets into the merchant management shuffle

Long-term Dalton Fine Paper chief Bill Eichhorn is shifting over to Dalton Web Paper, filling the position of general manager that Gordon Anthonisz vacated when he defected to Edwards Dunlop. Ken Bishop has taken Eichhorn's place as general manager at Dalton Fine Paper, moving over from his position at the head of Spicers Office Papers, another company in the PaperlinX stable. Tony Bertrand is appointed the new general manager at Spicers Office Papers.

According to Ken Bishop, the new appointments are part of an endeavour from PaperlinX to introduce some new faces into the management team. “The company is on a constant lookout for new ways to drive growth and progress in its paper merchant business. Fresh ideas are important for PaperlinX, and this is the main reasoning behind the management reshuffle.”

Tony Bertrand sees his new position as general manager at Spicers Office Papers as an exciting opportunity. “We'll be looking to expand on the work performed by Ken over the last several years. The company had its annual general meeting on Wednesday, and the management reshuffle has provided us with an opportunity to reinvigorate both the business and the people within it. That's definitely something that needs to take place once in a while.”
