Liles (pictured left) initially joined Avanti Conveyors back in 2015 as Finance Director and was subsequently promoted to Operations Director in 2019. Following seven years at Avanti Conveyors, he decided to pursue his career elsewhere in 2022, until he accepted Emmepi Group Avanti’s offer in August 2024. Liles will be leading the project management and installation teams and will be assuming responsibility for all projects, project scheduling and all related engineering work with those projects.
Simon Mander, Managing Director, commented, “Following our recent acquisition by Emmepi Group, Andy rejoins the team at an exciting time. Our business can now offer complete site automation to our customers within the corrugated packaging industry. With Andy’s experience and expertise in this industry, coupled with his recent experience from outside of our industry, he joins a management team confident in the knowledge that we are moving to the next level in our abilities to supply all our customers’ materials handling requirements.”
Liles commented, “I am looking forward to rejoining the team again and to working with our customers and partners to ensure the best possible level of service and quality expected from a key supplier. I am excited to be a part of the new Materials Handling Division of Emmepi Group and contributing to the new common goal of offering a totally integrated solution for our customers.”
