After Ball & Doggett announced it had taken over the Kornit Digital distribution, its next savvy business move was to appoint Phillip Rennell to the role of national manager of Industrial Equipment & Apparel Solutions.

Rennell brings with him a wealth of experience and passion from former roles in the industry. He has been an integral part of the Kornit Digital team and before that, played a key role for 20 years as Currie Group’s sales and marketing director.

A spokesperson from Ball & Doggett said Rennell “is well-equipped to provide the highest level of support and services to our Industrial range and apparel solutions.”

Rennell told Sprinter he was excited to join a professional company with a clear strategy and great people.

“It’s a great environment. I feel it’s the right time, and the (company) strategy feeds into my experience and skills,” says Rennell.

Rennell said he hopes to contribute to making the business a better partner to its customers.

“What I’ve seen of the people and the way the business is developing, particularly in terms of the equipment portfolio, I think augurs well for the business to be more important to its customers and to serve its customers in a broader way,” Rennell says.
