The experts will unite with P&G Professional at various points in the year to share information on research, insights, trends, best practices and more.

"Over the years, P&G Professional has worked closely with industry authorities to ensure we're well-informed and forward-thinking when it comes to strategic planning, communications, product development and customer education,” said Greg Elmore, UK & Ireland country manager at P&G Professional. “The creation of the P&G Professional Expert Advisory Council will formalize this process and ensure that we are supporting our customers while also supporting progress industry-wide. We're delighted to have the opportunity to work with such esteemed industry experts and we welcome them on board."

“Partnering with an organisation like P&G Professional provides a unique opportunity to reach a diverse and significant audience. The ultimate goal for us as a collection of experts is to help grow confidence in the industry against the backdrop of external pressures, increasing competition and political uncertainty,” said Bob Cotton (pictured).
