Puljarevic joined EBV in 1987 from Motorola Semiconductor (now Freescale) to drive EBV’s activities in Eastern Europe and grew it into one of the most successful sales regions of the company.
“As an engineer, Mr. Puljarevic fully understands products and technology trends in the components industry and how to help customers benefit from them,” said Zammit. “As a businessman he has for nearly two decades continued to prove his commercial and finance skills. Thanks to Mr. Puljarevic, EBV has set standards for international distribution companies on how to operate in Eastern Europe.”
Meier joined EBV in 1984 and literally built EBV’s purchasing department from scratch, turning it into a showcase for the industry around asset management and mass-market purchasing. “His in-depth knowledge of people, structure, processes and systems, his pragmatism and focus on operational excellence made him the obvious candidate for this newly created position,” Zammit added.
The change of management at EBV Elektronik is following Avnet’s general philosophy of professional internal succession planning and conveys, in Zammit’s eyes, a message of continuity: “EBV has always been a company that has made customer satisfaction its highest priority. Together with the manufacturing partners of EBV and the EBV team, both gentlemen will work to ensure that this most important aspect of a successful distributor will continue to get the highest attention,” Zammit said.
