Bitzer’s Gwyneth retires

Gwyneth Kupczyk BitzerUK: Gwyneth Kupczyk, secretary to Bitzer UK md Kevin Glass and one of the company’s longest serving employees, has retired.  

Gwyneth joined Bitzer UK in 1985 and during her career had been secretary to no less than six managing Ddirectors, as well as sales directors.  Current md Kevin Glass said:  “Gwyneth should not be remembered purely for her role as secretary to the md, because she has meant so much more to Bitzer UK. Instrumental in helping to ensure the smooth day to day running of Bitzer UK’s operations, she has been an absolutely key member of the organisation.

“Her positive attitude and team ethos have also been appreciated by customers and suppliers alike,” said Kevin.
