Stapletons Tyre Services has a new chief operating officer in the guise of Alan Denton, formerly its operations director.

He replaces Mike England, who has stood down from the role.

Vice-chairman Jenji Murai, thanks England for his four years as retail director and managing director, and says he played an important role in the transformation of Stapletons.

Murai adds: “I have every confidence in Alan Denton and his senior team to successfully guide the future of Stapletons.”
