Justin Blaine (MD) of NeoWave Distribution commented, “I have always seen the support of partners as the key to success in telecoms and that is why I am pleased to announce our plan to add more innovative products and value added services for our partners. As a first step of that plan we are delighted to have Angus Fraser join NeoWave as a non executive director. His invaluable experiences and knowledge of high service distribution within a number of business sectors will further ensure that NeoWave’s strategy to become a more value added distributor to the telecoms channel will ensue”.
Angus Fraser is a former CEO of Hagemeyer UK & Ire (Newey & Eyre, WF Electrical etc) and CEO of Europe and Asia Pacific for Premier Farnell Plc the FTSE 250 company, (Farnell, CPC etc). At Hagemeyer he led the restructuring to save over £34 million of annual operating costs and contemporaneously increased sales to over £700 million through their network of 250 branches. At Premier Farnell he instigated the strategic re focus on Design Engineers that reversed a nine year continual market share loss to a major competitor. That strategic repositioning on Design Engineers has been maintained to the present day.
