LPRS Managing Director, John Sharples, is one of three finalists shortlisted in the “Strategic Mentors Business Person of the Year” category as part of the “West Oxfordshire Business Awards”. (www.woba.co.uk) The winner will be announced at a formal award ceremony in March.

It has been a year of dramatic change at LPRS, the UK based supplier of short range radio devices and sensors, from the launch of the company’s third generation of successful easyRadio modules to a complete review of the company’s cost base from manufacturing to marketing. This on-going success has been noted and drew the attention of local MP and Prime Minister, David Cameron, who paid the company’s offices in Witney, Oxfordshire, a visit at the end of last month.

LPRS, Europe’s leading supplier of short-range radio devices, announces the appointment of Sandie Sharples to the board of directors to take on the role of Client Services Director. This new position reflects the great importance LPRS puts on customer service, from design to delivery and beyond. Sandie comments: “Our customer surveys show that it is our service that really sets us apart from our competitors. We can assist our customers with design, implementation and manufacturing and like to be full partners in every project we undertake.” Sandie will manage key accounts and oversee the recruitment of additional distributors worldwide to further grow sales of their UK designed and manufactured market leading eRA wireless communication modules.
