TestEquity — the test and measurement products distributor owned by Distribution Solutions Group (DSG) — announced a series of executive appointments on May 26 aimed at supporting the company’s next phase of growth.

The new leadership additions include Jacob Harris as Chief Sales Officer; Karen McGowan as Chief People Officer; John Leahy as Chief Merchandising Officer; Clifton Wu as Chief of Staff and Strategy; and Klaus Werner as Chief Digital and Marketing Officer. The company also promoted William Bland to President of TestEquity/DSG Mexico.

TestEquity said the appointments are intended to strengthen its commercial go-to-market model, supplier partnerships, supply chain operations and digital commerce capabilities. The company added that the executives bring experience across electronics distribution, B2B ecommerce, merchandising, operations and organizational transformation.

The hires support TestEquity’s AmpX growth strategy, which focuses on customer experience, operational execution and digital expansion across the electronics manufacturing and test and measurement markets.

“TestEquity already has a strong position in the electronics distribution market,” TestEquity CEO Barry Litwin said in the announcement. “These leaders joined to give us the depth to accelerate execution of our AmpX growth strategy across the priorities that matter most to our customers and supplier partners: commercial alignment, merchandising strategy, organizational capability, and digital commerce. This is what a best-in-class team looks like. Our job now is to execute.”

Litwin joined TestEquity earlier this year after previously serving as CEO of industrial/MRO supplies distributor Global Industrial.

DSG’s TestEquity platform distributes test and measurement equipment, electronics production supplies and related services to customers across aerospace and defense, semiconductor, industrial electronics and electronics manufacturing markets.
