For many years, Larry Mulvany was the face of Wesco to many suppliers as the purchasing
manager. With over 40 years’ service across sales and purchasing Larry played a big part in the success of Wesco through the years. Today, Niamh Farrell is looking after the purchasing and she explained how recent years have made procurement more challenging than ever: “Since the start of the pandemic, purchasing has been a challenge through supply chain issues, hyper-inflation on steel and copper pushing prices up and a general demand on product that was unforeseen. We manage our purchasing quite well and always try and stay ahead where possible. We have increased our stock levels considerably in the last two years to help meet the needs of our customers so that we have the product when they need it.”
