CDW UK boss to depart

Dan Laws joined the business when it was known as Kelway 21 years ago

CDW UK's managing director Dan Laws is set to depart after 21 years with the firm.

Posting on Twitter, Laws said that his transition out of the MD role was announced yesterday.

He said he's not sure what his next role will entail.

CRN has contacted Laws and CDW for comment

Laws joined the business when it was known as Kelway, prior to its acquisition by CDW.

He took the reins in 2016, when founder and CEO Phil Doye moved into an advisory role, before departing.

CDW UK filed its most recent accounts in September, documenting the year ending 31 December 2019.

Sales rose around 10 per cent to £972.4m.

Publicly listed CDW also files quarterly reports with the stock exchange, and yesterday revealed that UK sales in its recently closed quarter dropped "high single digits".
