ABDO commemorates its former head of marketing

ABDO holds a commemoration ceremony for Michael Potter

A commemoration ceremony was held at the Association of British Dispensing Opticians (ABDO) College in Kent in honour of the former head of marketing Michael Potter.

The ceremony featured Potter’s wife Alison unveiling a new set of display cases and a plaque detailing Potter’s contributions in front of ABDO staff and members. Potter joined ABDO as head of marketing in 2007 and remained in the role until his death last year.

General secretary of ABDO Sir Anthony Garrett said: ‘Michael’s contribution to the profession cannot be overestimated, his part in the development of both ABDO and ABDO College is unrivalled and his love of the art of spectacle design is reflected in the collections housed in these two cabinets.’
