Alan Vincent, Sales Director of Foremost Electronics, says, “I have known Dave for a number of years, and we have a great working relationship.

He says, “I am excited to be joining Foremost Electronics in a Business Development role. Some years ago, I appointed Foremost as our key partner when I was the M.D. of Schroff UK Ltd and I have always been impressed with their customer focused approach and flexible business model dedicated to supporting the needs of all their customers and partners, almost irrespective of their spend, and I love that degree of customer focus. I view this as a great opportunity to help Foremost to deliver significant and continued growth into the future.”
