The Ice Co is part of the J Marr Group. A little background on our company: Determined to ensure a reliable supply of fish for his expanding fish processing business, in 1870 Joseph Marr bought his first fishing vessel. He was soon to see the benefits of his approach and was able to profit from the control he had in a disorganized and volatile market. The ability of the railway network to deliver fish across the country fueled a huge demand in sales but fresh fish needed a lot of ice to keep it cool and the J Marr company was there to take advantage of the new and emerging market. With the heady days of the local fishing fleets over, the crippling consequences of the “Icelandic cod wars” in the 1970’s and the implementation of a stringent quota system The J Marr Company looked to other markets that could make best use of their skills. Five generations on from Joseph Marr he might not recognise much of the family’s fishing heritage but he would recognize the entrepreneurial skills and enthusiasm for hard work that he used when he started the company. Today the J Marr Group operates in three sectors. Using our unique knowledge of shipping we now manage vessels for other owners who work in the marine research and recovery fields, as well as internal auditing. We operate a number of companies who supply water and ice products to the leisure and retail trades in fact we are now Europe’s largest supplier of ice products with manufacturing, storage and distribution facilities flexible enough to meet the demands that a change in the weather can bring. With modern cold stores serving some of the UK’s most well known brands our investment in cold store and logistics companies continues to show significant growthManaging Director @ From January 2014 to Present (2 years) Director (Secretary) @ From 2012 to 2015 (3 years) Director (Secretary) @ From 2012 to 2015 (3 years) Managing Director @ From August 2010 to September 2014 (4 years 2 months) Group Marketing Manager @ From August 2009 to March 2014 (4 years 8 months) Doncaster, United KingdomRegional Sales Manager @ Keeping London cool with ice and water From January 2008 to August 2009 (1 year 8 months) London, United KingdomRegional Sales Representative @ supplying Blue Keld Mineral water to Horeca market in London and surrounding counties.
