INGRAM MICRO ANNOUNCES ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGEMENT CHANGES
Move Will Realign Marketing and Value-added Services Departments

SANTA ANA, Calif., July 23, 1996
Ingram Micro Inc. announced today it has made two organizational management changes in its marketing and value-added services departments.

Doug Antone, president of Ingram Alliance and senior vice president of Ingram Micro, has taken on the additional responsibilities of managing the product marketing and marketing communications departments. In addition, Ingram Micro's value-added services department will now report to Greg Hawkins, senior vice president of sales.

"These two organizational changes will establish a new level of synergy between our reseller programs and vendor activities," said Jeff Rodek, president and COO of Ingram Micro. "In particular, it will heighten the awareness and create more integration between Ingram Alliance and Ingram Micro."

Antone added, "The marketing communications and product marketing departments support our reseller and vendor partners, and this realignment will allow a more cohesive approach to all of our marketing activities."

"Value-added services and sales have always worked closely together," said Hawkins, "however, this realignment will allow an even tighter integration of the sales and operations function."
