UK premium ice cream maker Hill Station has announced the appointment of Peter Salter as finance director, effective 19 November.


Salter was previously managing partner at Horwath Clark Whitehill, a leading chartered accountancy practice. He is also a non-executive director of AIM-listed The Real Good Food Company.
 
The company has recently revealed plans to intensify its marketing programme for the Hill Station brand and to expand its production facilities. Hill Station ice cream is currently manufactured in a 2,500 sq. ft. factory in Wiltshire.


Hill Station said it is increasing its supply, by both volume and number of outlets supplied, to multiple retailers such as Sainsbury’s, Somerfield, Tesco and Waitrose. The ice cream brand is also available in independent fine food stores and restaurants.
