Directorate Change

Coral Products plc, a group of specialist businesses in design, UK manufacture and omni-channel supply of a wide range of bespoke plastic products based in Wythenshawe, Manchester, is pleased to announce the appointment of Ian Hillman as Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO) with immediate effect. Ian moves into this role from his former position as Group Chief Operating Officer (COO).

Ian has led the business since 25 October 2024 following the resignation of the former CEO. Under his leadership, the Company has delivered significant changes to re-size and restructure the business, positioning it for long-term success and sustainable growth. The Board is confident that his appointment as CEO reflects both the results achieved to date and the strategic vision required to lead the business forward.

In addition, the Board intends to appoint Robert ("Rob") David as Group Operations Director, subject to the completion of regulatory due diligence procedures. Rob brings extensive experience from previous senior management and managing director roles within the UK plastics processing industry. For the past six months, Rob has served as a key member of Ian Hillman's senior operational management team. During this time, he has made a substantial contribution to the Company's operational and commercial improvements and is regarded as an asset to the organisation.

Joe Grimmond, Chairman of the Board, commented:

"Ian Hillman has been leading the business since 25 October  2024. The improvements and progress made over the last six months, including the successful integration and early contribution of the recent Arrow Film & Foil asset and business acquisition announced on 1 April 2025, fully support his appointment to Group Chief Executive Officer. I am also delighted with the contribution Rob David has made to the business and recognise his experience and leadership as key assets for the future."
