Ingram Micro has announced an executive restructuring at DBL Distributing, which it purchased in 2007, under which DBL President Henry Chiarelli and senior vice president of sales Bruce Kuperman will leave the company.

Brent McCarty has been named DBL's new vice president and general manager. Kuperman will leave immediately, while Chiarelli will remain as a strategic advisor. McCarty will report to John Soumbasakis, Ingram Micro's senior vice president and general manager of strategic divisions.

"Thanks to the hard work of Chiarelli, Kuperman and the entire DBL team, we are well positioned to extend DBL's leadership within the consumer electronics market and deliver even greater value to our growing customer base," Soumbasakis said as part of the announcement. "Under McCarty's leadership, we will work together to accelerate DBL's success and achieve more growth for the division."
