PureWRX CEO David Schofman said that "As our company expands internationally, the complexity of how we serve our customers will only increase. Martin's experience with large-scale operations wil be an invaluable asset for our team as we address those challenges." From 2001 to 2008, Mr. Garvin was at Dell Computer, where he was first the Vice President of Worldwide Procurement and then later Senior Vice President and Chief Procurement Officer.

"PureWRX has demonstrated that Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) programs are a very important way for IT hardware manufacturers to build closer ties with their best customers. And the closer you are to customers, the more complicated the procurement and operational requirements can be, especially for global service providers," Mr. Garvin said. "PureWRX is on a strong growth trajectory in the US and internationally, and I look forward to helping the company meet those customer needs while at the same time making their operations as efficient and effective as possible."
