N.A.A. Limited, suppliers to the kitchen, furniture and adhesive industries, has announced two senior appointments to support its ongoing expansion of sales and service capabilities.

Both appointments are from within the existing team, with Peter Curry taking over as Sales Director of N.A.A.’s adhesives division and David Hayes promoted to Regional Sales Manager.

Curry joined N.A.A. in January 2024 as part of the company’s acquisition of Stephen Miller Packaging, a move that the company say “consolidated N.A.A.’s position as Ireland’s foremost distributor to the adhesives sector”.

He has overseen a smooth transition for Stephen Miller Packaging’s former client base, while bolstering growth and innovation in N.A.A.’s growing adhesives division, where the Dublin-based company is now the exclusive distributor of H.B. Fuller and Beardow Adams adhesives in Ireland.

Commenting on Curry’s appointment, Luke Hickey, Managing Director of N.A.A., said: “Peter’s promotion to Sales Director reflects his exceptional contributions to our adhesives division.

His deep knowledge of the industry, combined with his ability to build strong relationships with clients, has been key to our continued growth and success in 2024.

“The strategic acquisition of Stephen Miller Packaging transformed our adhesives offering and, with the benefit of Peter’s expertise and leadership, I am confident we will continue to deliver world-class solutions to our customers.”

Hayes has been with N.A.A. for nearly 22 years, joining the family-owned firm as a warehouse operator before progressing to the trade counter and then rising through the company’s sales division. 

An expert in solutions from suppliers such as Hettich, Hayes’ technical expertise and experience have strengthened N.A.A.’s partnerships and delivered positive results for customers.

Hickey says his appointment as Regional Sales Manager is a testament to his own hard work and to N.A.A.’s values of loyalty, growth and talent development.

“David Hayes is the embodiment of what N.A.A. stands for as a family business with over 100 years of history and a company that has always prioritised excellence, innovation and investing in our people,” said Hickey.

“David’s steady progression and unwavering commitment made him a natural choice for a leadership role.”

“His deep expertise in our product range adds immense value to N.A.A. and to our clients, and I am confident he will continue to inspire our team and drive success in his new role as Regional Sales Manager.

“The promotions of Peter and David will further drive N.A.A.’s growth as Ireland’s leading distributor of adhesives, hardware, finishing and appliance solutions,” added Hickey.
