Mr Foley moved to Triplex Lloyd Plc in 1989 becoming Group Managing Director

Michael Richards, Chief Executive Officer, Ekay, commented:
"The takeover of WFCA last month brought new direction for the enlarged group.
The integration of the two businesses is largely complete leaving management
free, once again, to focus on income generation. We believe that considerable
scope exists to move our business into new market segments and geographical
areas.
"John Foley comes with great experience relevant to our expansion strategy. He
is a strategic thinker and a successful manager and will work with the Board in
strengthening Ekay's position as a leading name in the advertising and
