Former England footballer Teddy Sheringham visited Okarno in early January to help spread the word about the firm’s recent rebrand from Artex.
Okarno is a leading sustainable distributor of some of the UK’s best known construction brands, including Gyproc, Thistle and Weber. With a strapline ‘There are no others like us,’ the new brand name is intended to create “a common sense of purpose, energy, and enthusiasm, whilst capturing the company’s unique approach to supply chain logistics.”
Managing Director Jason Smith (pictured with Teddy, top) said: “We felt that it was important to share our rebrand with all our staff, and thanks to Teddy for helping out. Okarno better reflects what we do as a company, although we like to remind customers that they are still being supported by the same great products and outstanding people!”
Okarno states that it provides a unique service by combining market-leading trade brands and delivering them directly through three service offerings. Customers can choose from single pallets, mixed pallet loads, through to small parcels.
