CompUSA Inc, which last month detailed its plans to close down its own Grapevine, Texas-based distribution center and move to third party distribution (CI No 3,690) has now signed up Ingram Micro Inc as its primary distributor. The five-year contract could see around $10bn in products shipped over the contract’s term. Around 65% of CompUSA’s business is generated from its chain of retail stores, but the rest comes from a direct sales force serving commercial business accounts.
