Simultaneously, the company announced the departure of two executives: Henry Chiarelli, President, and Bruce Kuperman, Senior Vice President of Sales. Kuperman, who joined DBL in March 2001, will step down immediately. Chiarelli, who joined DBL in August 2006 and was appointed president in 2007, will remain onboard as a strategic advisor to the new DBL leadership team to ensure a smooth transition.
"We welcome McCarty to the DBL leadership team and want to thank Henry and Bruce for their considerable contributions to DBL Distributing and wish them great success in the future," says John Soumbasakis, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Strategic Divisions for Ingram Micro North America.
"Thanks to the hard work of Chiarelli, Kuperman and the entire DBL team, we are well positioned to extend DBL's leadership within the consumer electronics market and deliver even greater value to our growing customer base," continues Soumbasakis. "Under McCarty's leadership, we will work together to accelerate DBL's success and achieve more growth for the division."
As Vice President and General Manager, McCarty will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of DBL Distributing and report directly to Soumbasakis. Prior to his appointment, McCarty served as senior director of VAR sales for Ingram Micro Canada where he was recognized as a talented leader with demonstrated success for building strong and sustainable customer relationships that are mutually beneficial.
