WARRINGTON-based VIP UK is celebrating a record year as they closed out their financial year exceeding £200m for the first time.

The company based at Hardwick Grange has seen a 40% increase in revenue and VIP believes that employee development and investment will be key to their continued success in meeting their strategic objectives.



In line with this strategy, VIP UK is delighted to announce that they have expanded the Board of Directors with two new appointments: Elliott Hodgeon as Sales Director and Elanza Butters as E-commerce & Marketing Director.
As Sales Director Elliott will provide energetic and innovative leadership to the expanding sales team, after progressing within VIP over the last 5 years.
Elliott said “I appreciate the Board’s confidence in me, and I’m delighted to have the opportunity to lead such a great team. VIP is a fantastic company, with great people and it has been a pleasure to be a part of the huge success we have seen in recent years. I look forward to expanding this success in my new role whilst continuing to provide the excellent services and programmes our clients and vendors deserve”.
Joining him is Elanza who has been with VIP for the last 4 years. Elanza will be continuing to lead her department and support vendors and customers alike, whilst also driving forward investment in digital platforms and customer-led infrastructure.
Elanza said, “I am very pleased to be joining the Board and I look forward to playing a part in the continued development and growth of VIP UK, supporting our teams, our valued vendor partners and most importantly our customers”.
VIP Chairman, Jatti Sahni said of the appointments: “Our leadership team and our wider VIP family have shown great resilience and resourcefulness over what has been a challenging 12+ months across the globe. As such, expanding the Board is hugely significant as we plan for the next phase of our business growth”.
Alongside these new appointments, VIP is happy to welcome over 20 new recruits to the business over the last 12 months. This is another indication of the commitment VIP has towards growing significantly over the coming years.
