IBMG’s south-west division incorporates CRS’s 13 builders merchant branches in Somerset as well as RGB’s 22-branch network across Devon and Cornwall. Both RGB and CRS were acquired by IBMG in 2022. With Mr Spokes taking the helm in the south-west, Toby Constable will continue to lead IBMG’s build division in the south-east with Mat Miller in the north.
Prior to this appointment, Mr Spokes was MD of IBMG’s roofing division where he has overseen its development to become the third largest roofing merchant in the country and the largest independent in southern England.
“I am thrilled with this appointment,” said Allun Pittingale, COO of IBMG. “Danny has extensive experience in this sector and a track record of building great teams and delivering great results. Danny is keenly aware of the heritage and history of his new brands and I am absolutely certain that he will take our south-west build division to new heights.”
“Our branch network in the region, in terms of geographical spread and customer base, is significant and I have no doubt that, together with the teams in each branch, we can continue to make a big difference to tradespeople across the south-west,” said Mr Spokes.
