Ingram Micro leadership change in the DC/POS EMEA Organization
Ingram Micro is pleased to announce a strategic leadership transition within its DC/POS (Data Capture/POS) business in EMEA. As part of our ongoing commitment to growth, innovation, and delivering best-in-class value to our vendors and partners, we are introducing a new chapter in the leadership of this important business segment.
Mark Cheetham, who has led the DC/POS business with dedication and professionalism, has made the decision to pursue new opportunities outside the organization. We thank Mark for his contributions and leadership, and we wish him all the best in his future endeavours.
Stepping into the leadership role is Chris Connell, a seasoned IT professional with a proven track record of success. Chris brings with him 18 years of extensive leadership experience within Ingram Micro across various strategic roles. His deep knowledge of our business, commitment to operational excellence, and passion for partner success position him ideally to lead the DC/POS business into its next phase of growth and innovation.
Mark Chlebek, Vice President of EMEA Vendor Performance, stated, “Chris’s proven leadership in our industry, along with his deep understanding of our ecosystem, makes him an ideal leader for this next phase. I am confident that he will work collaboratively with our partners to unlock new opportunities and bring our Xvantage platform strategy to life — delivering smarter, faster, and more connected ways to grow our shared business. This underscores Ingram Micro’s unwavering focus and continued investment in the DC/POS business. We remain fully committed to supporting our vendors and partners through strong enablement, innovative go-to-market strategies, and operational excellence that drives mutual success.”
As part of Ingram Micro’s broader digital strategy, our Xvantage platform is a cornerstone of partner and vendor enablement. Xvantage seamlessly brings together the tools, insights, and workflows that vendors and partners need to thrive. From real-time analytics to smart recommendations and collaboration, Xvantage is empowering our DC/POS community to grow faster and operate more efficiently.
We look forward to continuing to work closely with you — our valued vendors and partners — as we continue to build on our shared successes. Thank you for your ongoing trust, collaboration, and business.
