On joining Celesio UK, Ashley Cowen said: “It’s important to remember that at the end of our supply chain, there is a patient, it’s not just about moving products. I’m excited to be a part of such a forward thinking, customer-centric company and I hope to be able to enhance our already industry leading service levels. I’m proud to be a part of a passionate and dedicated team that is highly motivated by putting the customer first.”
Russell Freeman has also joined the organisation as Head of Central Logistics reporting into Ashley.
