Bancroft Wines is pleased to announce that John Hutton will be joining the team as a consultant to their sales and buying teams.  As the former Managing Director and latterly Chairman of Fields, Morris & Verdin, John brings a wealth of industry experience to the growing Bancroft Team. 

Jon Worsley Bancroft’s CEO commented ‘it is great to strengthen the company with John’s considerable knowledge and expertise, we are delighted to have him on board at such an exciting time for our business’.  Damian Carrington, Bancroft’s Agency Director added ‘I have had the privilege to work with John for well over a decade and I have learnt a huge amount over that time from his unique blend of commerciality and unrivalled ability to build relationships with customers and suppliers.  I know the team will look forward to having John’s expertise to call upon.’
 
John Hutton concluded ‘I am delighted to be supporting the Bancroft Wines team at such an important time for them as a business.  Having had a little time from the industry out I am really looking forward to working with what is clearly a dynamic and fast-growing company and one focused on quality wines and long-term relationships which has always been a crucial principle for me throughout my career.’ 

In line with the company’s continued and strategic growth, John is the latest in a series of 13 appointments at Bancroft Wines. These new roles span all departments and were created to deliver on the growing portfolio. In the last two years, Bancroft has added over 70 new to the already award-winning portfolio, augmenting the range in new countries and regions and adding depth and choice in areas in which the portfolio was already recognised for its strength.
