Matt Manning:
Can you give us a brief history of how Range Right came to be and who the key people in the business are?
Jake Peters:
Our MD, Gill Peters, who also happens to be my mother, has worked in the gun industry since 1985, having joined the trade completely by chance and never expecting to make a career of it. She formed Range Right along with Keith Taylor and the company ’s first day of trading was 1 July, 1996. Gill bought Keith out in 2008 and the business has gone from strength to strength with her at the helm. That said, with nearly 40 years in total in the trade under her belt she’s winding down — well, just a little bit — and leaves the day-to-day running of the business to me and my colleague, Rob Saville. I look after all things sales related and Rob runs operations and logistics. We have very happy staff and value all members of the team greatly. We’re like one big family really, all pulling together for the common good.
