He was also the operating chief at health food shop operator Holland & Barrett Retail Ltd and held various executive roles at motoring and cycling products retailer Halfords Group PLC.
Angling Direct Chief Executive Darren Bailey said: "His extensive experience in retail, gained from working with reputable blue-chip companies in the retail and consumer sectors, will be invaluable and will complement the skills we already have in our boardroom. We are pleased to have attracted talent such as Andy and we look forward to working with him in the months and years ahead."
