“The potential is enormous.”
Three familiar figures have teamed up to promote Prestige Italia across the UK.
The Italian saddlery brand is now represented by newly appointed senior strategic consultant Claire Galer, plus regional agents Michael Darley and Catherine Powell.
“This strengthened structure marks a significant step in reinforcing Prestige’s long-term commitment to UK retailers, fitters and the wider equestrian community,” says a spokesperson for the company.
Claire Galer has a background in equine biomechanics and physiotherapy. She founded underwear brand Derriere Equestrian and has previously worked for D&H and Saddlery Brands International.
Michael Darley, now representing Prestige Italia in the south and central England, Wales and Ireland, is a former British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA) chairman.
Catherine Powell, who’s covering the north of England, North Wales and Scotland, has worked for Olympic eventer Jeanette Brakewell and was on Zebra Products’ sales team.
“The potential for Prestige Italia in the UK is enormous,” says Claire Galer.
“With strong regional agents, a fitter led, retailer supported vision and a clear strategic roadmap, we are building a structure designed for long term success.”
Prestige Italia, founded in 1974, has two brands - Prestige and Renaissance.
