Simultaneously with the change of facilities, the wholesaler also announces the appointment of Paulo Almeida as Country Manager in the Portuguese country.
MCRthe first national wholesaler of new technologies and computers, opens an office in Portugal, specifically in Lisbon.

Simultaneously to the change of facilities, the wholesaler has also announced the appointment of Paulo Almeida as Country Manager in the Portuguese country. All these changes, together with the expansion of MCR's sales team in Portugal, are a reflection of the investment and value bet that the Spanish wholesaler has been making in the Portuguese country since 2006.
Paulo Almeida, who was already part of the MCR team in Portugal as Telecom Sales Director, has been promoted to the position of Country Manager with the objective of developing new projects offering the most complete global solutions and to address the development of new business for the market.
His appointment responds to the company's strategic development strategy planned for 2024 in the neighboring country, as well as to the company's growing presence in markets where the sales opportunity is increasing.
Paulo Almeida, with a wide experience in consumer electronics and a close direct contact with distributors and manufacturers, has acquired the necessary skills and knowledge to face this new challenge. Now, with the assumption of responsibility for the entire MCR business in Portugal, his main objectives will be to energize the IT channel (an area in which MCR started its activity with numerous integration products), as well as the development of new brands.
"We want to offer the Portuguese distribution channel all the necessary support and the best solutions from leading brands to respond to the growing needs of the market."
