Growth in Sales of Computing Products and Mobile Devices through the Retail Sector Prompts a New Commitment of Resources and Support from D&H

HARRISBURG, PA – Leading North American computer products and consumer electronics distributor D&H Distributing is investing in additional support for its rapidly-growing tablet and mobility business in the form of a new PC/Tablet Retail Planning Specialist.  The new Planning Specialist will manage and forecast inventory of both PC and mobile computing products ordered through the retail channel by a mix of independent consumer electronics dealers, ecommerce retailers and big box retailers. 

The addition of a Planning Specialist to the D&H team will help the company better manage and satisfy demand in these still burgeoning categories. This enhancement of resources is along the same line as the recent addition of the “D&H Concierge” service.  With one call, the D&H Concierge is empowered to solve any customer’s needs across all D&H departments, to deliver complete customer satisfaction.

 “Tablets and mobility are still exploding.  We’ve been driving market share for an array of manufacturers showing both Android and Windows-based units at various price points and screen sizes since 2010, and the category has done nothing but accelerate,” said Jeff Davis, senior vice president of sales at D&H.  “The Bring Your Own Device trend has been fueled by retail sales of personal devices, which has generated a new ecosystem of mobile products varying from wireless security solutions to mobile device management software.  We’re thrilled to provide this new level of support, and welcome our newest D&H Specialist.”
