Trtl (pronounced Turtle), travel accessory brand, recently announced Luke Gorringe has joined the team as Director of International Retail. Before making the move to Trtl, Gorringe performed senior management roles within Aer Rianta and held the title of CEO at Delhi Duty Free.

A Glasgow-based brand, Trtl designs and retails innovative travel products with a goal to solve the most common travel problems from sleeping in-flight to packing a carry on. Experiencing global success with its Trtl Travel Pillow and other accessories on major e-commerce platforms, the company is now adding a significant focus on international retail & the travel retail channel. Having secured listings with Dixon’s and WHSmith in Europe and Brookstone in the USA, the brand is available in some key airports.
