Andy Marshall has been appointed National Business Development Manager for Aico Ltd. a wholly owned subsidiary of Ei Electronics, manufacturer of the market- leading Ei Professional range of Smoke and Carbon Monoxide alarms.

He has worked with commercial fire and lighting companies, most recently as a Business Development Manager for Thorn Lighting prior to joining Aico. Andy comments on his decision to join Aico: "Aico is very focussed and successful in its own sector; they sell on quality and innovation. It also strongly appealed to me that they are the only domestic alarm company to manufacture products within the EU - all alarms are designed and manufactured at the factory in Ireland to exceptionally high standards, with every single alarm being tested individually as opposed to batch testing."

" With such high quality products, I believe there are many opportunities to grow the business. It's been a learning curve, as any job is, but I'm really enjoying it." A wholly owned subsidiary of Ei Electronics, Aico is the first name in residential fire protection in the UK. All alarms are designed and built in Europe specifically to meet the UK standards and regulations.
