CIH Announces Appointment of New Chairman

Combined Independents (Holdings) Ltd (CIH), an electrical buying group, part of Euronics, Europe’s largest electrical buying group, has announced the appointment of a new Chairman, Steve Scogings.

Steve Scogings succeeds Robin Millwood who was Chairman for 12 years. Steve was Deputy Chairman of CIH for the last two years and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience of the independent electrical retail channel with 28 years with the electrical retail chain, Stellisons Electrical. Steve continually innovates to ensure that Stellisons is at the forefront of the retail industry. Stellisons was the first UK retailer to introduce electronic shelf labelling technology to streamline the pricing process, and to relieve staff to focus on its core value, customer service.

Stuart Cook, Chief Executive Officer, CIH says: “Robin has been an excellent Chairman providing effective leadership, encouraging healthy debate and directing the board to conclusions for the good of CIH and the industry. Robin has done an excellent job and we thank him for his sterling work and dedication.

“We welcome Steve Scogings as the new Chairman of CIH. Steve has played an integral role as a CIH Director for a number of years. With significant changes to come at CIH, we are delighted to have Steve on board as our new Chairman.”
