Sonepar USA Strengthens Utility Services
Charleston, S.C. (February 19, 2020) – Sonepar USA, a subsidiary of the privately held Sonepar Group, announced today that Joe LeNoir, President of Irby Utility, will assume management responsibility for Sonepar USA’s utility and broadband/telecom business (excluding California), all of which will go to market under the Irby brand.
Uniting the US utility businesses allows for increased alignment and ability to service new and existing customers. Combining Irby’s broadband capabilities with Codale’s utility and telecom business creates additional services and solutions for customers and stronger relationships with suppliers.
Developing a more comprehensive sales and operational focus tied to customers and suppliers will streamline and create efficiencies in our utility business, allowing us to develop the solutions and capabilities necessary to always be a market leader. Combining forces better positions us to have significant positive impacts for our customers, vendors, associates and shareholders.
We are excited for our utility segment to be part of the Irby team. Codale’s expertise will help expand Sonepar’s utility and telecom businesses in the US under Joe’s leadership
