Allan Heffernan is Back! 

Thorite, the UK's biggest independent pneumatic products, process systems and hydraulics distributor, is delighted to announce the long-anticipated return of one of its most popular and highly regarded Key Accounts Managers, Allan Heffernan. 

Allan had to leave Thorite 14 months ago due to health problems, but he has now made a full recovery and is back serving the many needs of the company's industrial, manufacturing and processing customers in the Blackburn, Bolton and Rochdale sales areas. 

Allan built up outstanding customer relationships before his illness, thanks to his unique problem-solving capabilities, based on the experience of pneumatic systems gained with major compressor manufacturer Ingersoll-Rand, with whom he had previously worked for over 25 years. 

Speaking of his return to the Thorite fold Allan said:
 "It is a real pleasure to be back at work, seeing many familiar faces and meeting new people at our customers throughout the area. I'd like to thank everyone who has expressed concern for me during my illness, plus all those who are now greeting me with warmth and best wishes. The day to day workload is as interesting and varied as ever and I'm enjoying every moment." 

Allan is married with 3 children and lives in Hindley near Wigan. In his leisure time he's most likely to be found creating something mouthwatering in the kitchen or playing golf.
