Giles Pratt joins Fujitsu

UK: Giles Pratt has been appointed area business development manager for Fujitsu General Air Conditioning (UK).

In his new role, Giles will draw on over 35 years of experience to build and strengthen relationships with large contractors and end users.

Giles has had a long relationship with Fujitsu, having first become associated with the brand over 25 years ago, when he and Rachel Wales formed FM Air Conditioning. He eventually left FM in 2005 to join Oceanair Distribution before forming his own business, Soulair, in 2009.

Maintaining that Fujitsu currently has the strongest product range in its history, Giles said: “Having worked closely with Fujitsu for many years in my past role as a distributor, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to join the company.”
