UK.- Nick Walton is now E-Service’s Commercial Director of the company’s new sales and service hub in Castleford, West Yorkshire. Walton joins founders Mike Clokie and Nick and Colin Veitch as a shareholder in the business. E-Service was founded in 2004 by Clokie and the Veitch brothers as a dedicated service business designed to deliver essential spare parts, component repairs and field engineer support to UK gaming operators. Nowadays, the company holds an international reputation for professional and cost-effective after-sales services.

On its part, Nick Walton said: “I am delighted to be joining such a respected company at such an exciting time in its development. Using the highly successful and established E-Service business model, the new Castleford offices will provide a local stock of essential spares, offer bench service and hardware repairs, plus act as the regional centre for our extensive field service contracts across the amusement, gaming and casino sectors. It’s a great opportunity to join an organisation that I know well and respect highly. I look forward to welcoming the industry and explaining in more detail the plans for the business at our official ‘Open Day’ on Friday 18th March at the new offices, which are located at Unit B3, Whitwood Enterprise Park, Speedwell Road, Castleford, WF10 5PX, which is just a few minutes from the M62 at Junction 31.”
