Inspecs appoints general manager of Norville

Inspecs has appointed Nevil Trotter as general manager of Norville, the ophthalmic lens manufacturer that it acquired in July.

Trotter has joined the company from Specsavers where he worked for 13 years, most recently as a partner and director of group manufacturing and distribution technologies.

Robin Totterman, chief executive of Inspecs, said: ‘Nev brings a significant array of experience, expertise and knowledge of the optical industry and we look forward to leveraging this to build on Norville’s heritage and transform its future. I have no doubt that he will be a great asset to the group as we look to further build our online offering and continue to extend the group’s manufacturing capability.’
