Co-op Wholesale Makes New Appointments To Drive Forward Growth Plans

Co-op Wholesale (formerly known as Nisa) has announced that Ian King has been promoted to the role of Business Development & Growth Director, while Paul Webster has become Partnerships & Sales Director.

King’s expanded role will see him oversee the full end-to-end customer journey, including new business, central operations, and store format and delivery.

Webster joined the convenience wholesaler in January 2025 as Head of Partnerships. His remit was to manage the company’s largest corporate accounts and strategic partnerships. In his new role, Webster will also take on responsibility for the group’s wholesale sales team.

Katie Secretan, Managing Director of Co-op Wholesale, said: “These appointments reflect the confidence we have in both Ian and Paul to help drive our ambitious growth plans forward. Their leadership, commercial focus and deep understanding of our partners make them hugely valuable additions to the operating board.”
