operations of ScanSource’s European offices, including expanding
the company’s vendor line card, enhancing the technology offerings
and strengthening customer relationships. He has more than 15 years
of experience in distribution, including more than seven years with
broadline distributor Ingram Micro, where he held a number of
positions, including purchasing manager and senior buyer.
Patrick Zaman has been named managing director of ScanSource
Communications UK. In this position, he will help manage the
company’s communications strategy and growth initiatives. Patrick
Zaman spent more than 11 years with Belgacom, a Belgian service
provider, where he served in various sales, marketing and
merchandising leadership roles focusing on the company’s voice and
communications products.

She was instrumental to the success of Algol Europe and will

“We are committed to the continued growth of our European
operations and excited about the opportunities that lie ahead,
which is evident through the acquisition of Algol Europe and our
