Horton was regional sales manager for the South West of England, and was well known throughout the industry for his knowledge and love of Blum products. Employed by Michael Powell in the late 1980s, Horton has seen the company grow from four employees to over 60 today. He joined as a young man after a few years as a salesman with Hygena, and also a kitchen fitter, and then spent the rest of his working career with Blum UK.
“Through all my years at Blum I have always held firm to one belief, people buy from people not from companies, and I always treated people as I would want to be treated myself; I like to think it worked.” recollects Graham.
A retirement party was held in Milton Keynes for Horton, which was not only attended by current Blum staff, but also by the managing director of Blum Austria, Gerhard Blum, as well as a number of Horton’s customers who have become personal friends over the years.
