STAEDTLER (UK) Ltd is sad to announce the passing of Jim Wilson, the Company’s former Sales Manager. In a career spanning 38 years Jim saw STAEDTLER grow from a fledgling partnership with the Company’s distribution agent in 1966 to a successful stand-alone manufacturing and distribution affiliate of the German parent company until his retirement in 2005. Highly respected by both colleagues and customers, Jim leaves a lasting legacy which contributed to STAEDTLER achieving a market leading role in the writing instrument sector.

Jim’s funeral will take place on Tuesday 8th January. Please email janet.thomas@staedtler.com for further information.
