It is expected that the biggest impact of the EMEA expansion will be a larger presence in the UK, Sweden, Belgium, Spain and the Middle East.
“This really expands CPI’s footprint across EMEA,” said Seamus Ryan, CPI’s Sales Director for EMEA. “Traditionally our business with Anixter has been on a project-by-project basis. Now we have a wide range of stock on the ground that will increase CPI’s day-to-day business, as well as improve the service levels for projects in the pipeline.
“With stock available from five locations in EMEA we are in a better position to service a customer base that stretches across more than 20 countries.”
