German designer and manufacturer of high-end audio, video and IT cables and related products Sommer Cable has opened a subsidiary in the US. Sommer Cable America Inc can deliver most of the company’s line-up of more than 12,000 products within 5-10 business days to any American customer.
Newly appointed CEO Martin Ucik, who holds degrees in Electrical Engineering and Business, heads the North American Sommer team. He will supervise all cable sales, marketing, order processing and support activities in the US, Canada and Mexico while retaining a role as strategic business consultant with his former employer plus24.
‘Over the years, we’ve worked with Martin and several other distribution partners in the US,’ says company CEO, Rainer Blanck. ‘When we decided to open our North American subsidiary, we chose Martin as CEO because as a dual German/American citizen and with his extensive experience in building successful distribution businesses in Germany and the US, he was the ideal candidate. As the head of our American team he will assure excellent customer relationships and long-term continuity.’
‘After working with Sommer for many years, and specifically with US distributor plus24 since 2002, I have been offered this exciting opportunity to put my 35 years of industry and management experience in service of a great company and their American customers,’ Ucik says.
