|  | | | Meet The Whisky Team
We believe you should know the back-room boys and girls first of all. Many of you who haven't yet visited the shop and contact us for advice, with an enquiry or an order, will first of all come into contact with our hard working team who answer the telephone, pick the orders and deliver the goods. So busy are they delivering the goods, we have struggled to get a team photograph!
Adding up the combined ages of the whole team, we have 393 years and 24% of those have been spent with The Wright Wine Company - 94 years - some achievement eh?
Here is a brief résumé of who you may encounter when contacting us;
Maree - joined us early in May 1996 from the hotel industry. Turning her hand to almost any department in the business this petite lassie deserves a medal for endurance if nothing else. To maintain her interest Bob now refers to her as his personal assistant which is like starting a new job all-over again, eh Maree?
Norman - joined us when we took over looking after the various Colleges at Durham University in April 2000. Having done this for some 25 years he came as part of the package and has been here ever since. It would be wrong not to mention the old bugger even if he is never in Skipton.
Mike - came on board in June 2000 after his parents, Wright Wine Company customers for 18 years, sold their Pub and Restaurant. He is obviously well versed in the on-trade and now combines his skills in the off-trade - Left the company Jan.2010...moved to Talisker country....the Isle of Skye.
Trevor - a victim of redundancy from the "industrial revolution" never thought he would be an office clerk let alone a telephonist, well that is what he is and he does a damned fine job at it.
Marc - The big guy with the shaved head and a heart of gold say some. At his happiest delivering and driving round the Dales, Marc doubles as the warehouse "organiser" and he makes a pretty good job of that too.
Andrew - rescued from the on-trade that has never been good for a young couples marriage! We accept no responsibility for them now being a family of three but, as Andrew says, after the pub trade this is a doddle! As a company we know that that means Andrew is no stranger to turning his hand to anything that is going on, and that is what he does.
And now for the people you are most likely to meet, that is of course with the exception of Bob, our founder, who if not office bound chasing and correcting HMRC errors and other legislative happenings, will be out on the road caring for our trade customers.
