Johannesburg, South Africa, September 8, 2021: Westcon-Comstor Sub-Saharan Africa, a leading global distributor, today announced the appointment of Norbert Siteyi as regional sales manager for its East Africa region. In his role, he will work with the team in the region to drive sales, assist with reseller management, partner recruitment, and customer satisfaction.
“We are delighted to welcome Norbert to the Westcon-Comstor team. And believe his knowledge of the industry and the solid relationships he has built in this market will be a powerful addition to our team in East Africa,” says Vincent Entonu, director, Comstor Africa. “The interest in technology as a digital enabler is booming in Africa, but products are only one part of the delivery puzzle. We need strong people to ensure the highest levels of customer satisfaction while providing our channel partners with the support they need to tap into this growing market and succeed.”
A well-known and respected member of the East African tech industry for close to 20 years, Siteyi previously worked at Canon in Kenya in the capacity of country manager and, among others, served a tenure at Dell in Kenya as channel sales manager. With a Bachelor’s in Commerce from the University of Nairobi, he has enjoyed a pan-African career, and his experience extends to business development and management, channel fulfilment, financial and sales leadership.
“Technology has always been my passion, and it has been a privilege to build a career around what I love. Working at Westcon-Comstor, I am looking forward to using my experience in sales, business development, and my multi-dimensional product experience to help grow and nurture our partner and end-user relationships in the region,” says Siteyi. “I cannot overstate the importance of pairing the right technology to a customer’s direct needs, and I am excited at the prospect of being able to help grow this business and the people in my team through mentorship and skills transfer.”
