CompUSA, a subsidiary of Systemax, Inc. (NYSE: SYX) announced today that it has given its business-to-business (�B2B�) marketing efforts a considerable boost with the addition of a 35-person team of sales executives, with deep B2B sales experience, to be based in brand new, dedicated CompUSA offices in Boise, Idaho and Sioux City, South Dakota, giving the company a new strategic foothold in the West and Midwest.

�This new business-to-business marketing force is a reflection of our strong position and our long-term strategic expansion plans,� said Gilbert Fiorentino, Chief Executive of the Technology Products Group at Systemax, which includes CompUSA. �We plan to hit the ground running with this new team of seasoned professionals, with an average of 10-14 years of experience in the industry. They are the best in the business and will assist in expanding our B2B sales efforts.�

The team in Boise, Idaho, will be focused mainly on securing government and enterprise accounts, while the team in Sioux City, South Dakota will target small- to medium-size businesses. The recruits were formerly with MPC, which had acquired the corporate sales business of Gateway.

�This is a very significant step for us and we expect it will drive considerable sales volume,� added Fiorentino. �We hope that it can also be a first big step in the West and Midwest, toward further operational expansion in these regions in the future.�
