Dave Castle Appointed as BMF Board Advisor

MKM Building Supplies is pleased to announce that Dave Castle, Chief Operating Officer, has been appointed as a Board Advisor to the Builders Merchants Federation (BMF).

The appointment sees Dave return to the BMF Board and further strengthens MKM’s relationship with the organisation as the business continues to grow across the UK.

Dave said:

“This is a great opportunity for MKM to strengthen our relationship with the BMF and support the important work they do for the whole industry. From training and safety to lobbying the government and much needed work raising awareness of careers in merchanting, the BMF plays a big role in supporting businesses like ours.

Having a voice around the table also gives us the opportunity to contribute to the conversations that matter most to MKM, our people, our customers and the wider industry.”

Dave joined MKM last year as the business’s first-ever Chief Operating Officer, bringing more than 21 years’ experience in the building materials sector. Since joining the business, he has been working closely with Branch Directors, teams, suppliers and customers across the network as MKM continues to invest in its branches, people and services.

Kate Tinsley, CEO at MKM Building Supplies, said:

“Dave’s appointment is brilliant recognition for both him and MKM. There’s no denying how passionate he is about the industry and he understands exactly what matters to merchants, suppliers and customers.

The BMF does fantastic work supporting the sector, particularly around skills, training and giving our industry a stronger voice, so we’re really pleased to see Dave take on this role and represent MKM at board level.”

The BMF supports builders’ merchants and suppliers across the UK and Ireland through training, business support, market insight, safety guidance and industry representation.
