UK: Quinn Industrial Holdings has announced an upcoming rebranding, to take place in October 2020, to Mannok. The new branding will extend to its subsidiaries Quinn Building Products and Quinn Packaging, as well as to its Quinn brand cement. Chief executive officer (CEO) Liam McCaffrey said that the group’s 2019 results, the strongest since its acquisition from Seán Quinn in 2014, signalled the time for the change. The new name derives from the Gaelic name for Fermanagh, the UK county in which Quinn Industrial Holdings is based.
McCaffrey said, “We are extremely pleased to unveil Mannok as our new brand identity, which we believe better reflects the ownership, evolution and future focus of our business. It marks a major milestone for us following a five-year transformation programme that has empowered our staff and repositioned our businesses for continuing growth and innovation.” He added, “2019 marked our fifth successive year of earnings growth and a robust performance given Brexit uncertainty. Our targeted investment of recent years has established strong foundations for continuing growth across Ireland and the UK.”
