Value-added distribution specialist DCC Technology has established a new business unit, Exertis North America, dedicated to supporting the operations of its recent acquisitions: Jam Industries and Stampede.
Marty Szpiro (pictured), the long-time president and CEO of Jam Industries, will be stepping up to lead Exertis North America as its new president & CEO, said Tim Griffin, managing director of DCC Technology.
Stuart Frenkel, Jam Industries’ current CFO, will become the new president of the renamed Exertis/Jam. Stampede, which rebranded as Exertis last year, will operate under the Exertis Pro AV banner led by John Dunne, its president and managing director, DCC Technology said.
“DCC Technology’s has established leadership positions in selected value-added distribution specialisms in North America,” Griffin said.
“The rebranding of Jam Industries to Exertis/Jam is a natural next step as we continue our focus on our people, our vendors and our customers. We have a great team in place and the journey has just begun,” he added.
Clive Fitzharris, managing Director of Exertis International, added that, “We are delighted with the growth and development of our Exertis branded business in North America. It is a priority market with great potential. Congratulations to Marty, Stuart and John.”
Commenting on his new role, Marty Szpiro said: “The acquisition of Jam Industries was a great success – with DCC Technology/Exertis clearly adding tremendous resources to our growth mission.
I see my new role as a great opportunity to unite a tremendous family of distribution companies into a single, powerful market force that delivers value and growth for all stakeholders.”
