Mark Avis, a global entrepreneur and innovator, leads the Retro Catering Pods team. With a background in supply chain operations and manufacturing, Mark played a pivotal role in the growth of a UK based global company producing glass reinforced plastic (GRP) airport furniture products.
Over a span of 15 years, he transformed the company, known as Specialised Banking Furniture (SBFI Group), into a renowned international player in the design and manufacture of high-quality banking furniture. SBFI's products are widely used by traders and dealers in wholesale banks across major capital cities, including New York, Hong Kong, Frankfurt, Zurich, and London.
In addition to his work with SBFI, Mark has been involved in developing the UK retail dealer network for Groupe Renault, a French multinational automobile manufacturer. He has also served as the UK's lead ambassador for Bossa, a Turkish textile company established in the 1950s. Bossa is now one of the largest integrated textile corporations in Turkey, specialising in denim and sportswear fabrics with an annual production capacity of 50 million meters.
Although Mark's ventures have taken him into various industries, it seems that his past experiences at SBFI, where he was familiar with the fragrance of resin and acetone used in the manufacturing process, have drawn him back to the world of GRP, metalwork, and installation at Retro Catering Pods. With his entrepreneurial expertise, Mark aims to apply his magic and guide this embryonic business into a successful and thriving venture.
