“She brings with her great global knowledge and deep understanding of the online retail and review world. Our plans are for further accelerated growth this year.”
Couper added: “I am thrilled to be joining Feefo at this stage of their development and as they celebrate their first five years.
“Feefo is a true entrepreneurial, fast paced, innovative company with a great story to tell. I very much look forward to being part of that expansion.”
