Cheshire, England: Specialist turf care machinery company Campey Turf Care Systems has hailed the appointment of Nick Brown to the Board of the Asian Golf Industry Federation (AGIF).

Export Sales Manager at Campey’s, Brown will serve a two-year term in office.

Julia Campey, Managing Director at Campey Turf Care Systems, said: “We have been working closely with the AGIF for many years, contributing advice, information and practical assistance on the ground to golf course managers and turf professionals across Asia.

“To be able to positively influence the direction of the industry through Nick’s experience and insight is a unique and valuable opportunity.”

AGIF President Chris Gray added: “We’re delighted to have an individual of Nick’s experience and understanding of the golf industry join the AGIF Board. We look forward to the fresh perspectives he will bring with him.

“After many years as a member company, we’re especially pleased as this is the first time that Campey Turf Care Systems has had representation on the Board.

“These are exciting times for the Federation, and I have no doubt we will benefit from the expertise that Nick will bring to the table.”

For his part, Brown brings more than 25 years of experience in the golf and sports turf industry, including a previous role at Ransomes Jacobsen, where he gained extensive knowledge of international markets.

As Export Sales Manager at Campey’s, not only is Brown responsible for expanding the company’s presence in international markets, but also for building and maintaining long-lasting customer relationships.

Reflecting on his appointment, Brown said: “My role on the AGIF Board allows me to directly engage with members, understand emerging trends, and advocate for their needs while building high-level networks in both developed and emerging markets.

“As golf continues to grow in its appeal across Asia – from grass-roots development to championship venues – I feel that the AGIF and its Board members remain essential to guiding that momentum in a direction that is commercially viable, environmentally responsible, and globally connected.”
