Garrett brings more than 30 years’ experience of global sales and operational leadership to his new role. He joined Ishida Europe in May 2022 as general manager, Projects EMEA and has since led complex, multi‑market projects which have helped to advance Ishida’s integrated weighing, packaging, quality control and automation solutions offering.
Prior to Ishida, he held senior global sales roles at Emerson Process Automation, giving him extensive experience in driving commercial performance across diverse geographical markets and industrial sectors.
"I’m delighted to take on this role at such an important time for Ishida Europe. Our customers are facing increasing pressure to optimise operations, improve quality and reduce cost, and Ishida is uniquely positioned to help meet these challenges. I look forward to working with our customers and partners to deliver even greater value across the region," he stated.
In his new position, Garrett will leverage his extensive experience to lead Ishida Europe’s EMEA sales strategy, strengthen customer partnerships and support the rollout of new solutions designed to enhance operational efficiency, reduce cost and waste and to increase packing line productivity for both food and non‑food manufacturers.
"Nick’s promotion reflects both his strong leadership and the confidence we have in his ability to drive our commercial strategy across EMEA. His experience in global business development and leading geographically dispersed teams will be invaluable as we continue to expand our presence and support customers with innovative, reliable and sustainable solutions," stated Takayo Motegi, MD of Ishida Europe.
Ishida Europe, headquartered in Birmingham, continues to invest in R&D, manufacturing capability and customer support infrastructure to meet growing demand for automation and inspection technologies across global food and non‑food markets.
