As the founder and owner of MAC Eyewear, Mark is incredibly proud of the company and its portfolio of eyewear. A portfolio that means that we can offer you, the independent optician, innovative and truly exciting collections that enable you to really show what an independent optician can offer. Constantly looking to take the business forward, Mark is always looking to bring in fresh ideas and to work more closely with opticians and suppliers, so to improve our portfolio and service levels.  
 
Outside of work, Mark is a devoted father to his 2 children and is a huge fan of music, and can mostly be found in his car, travelling to see family, friends or customers, singing along to his favourite music!
