Synnex finalized its CEO succession plan Tuesday, announcing that Bob Huang will retire as president and CEO of the Fremont, Calif.-based distributor effective Dec. 1 and continue to assume the chairmanship of the distributor's board.

The board of directors appointed Kevin Murai as president and CEO. Murai has been serving as co-CEO with Huang for the last several months. The company also announced that Matthew Miau has been named chairman emeritus and will remain on the board of directors.

"Over the past several months, Kevin has clearly demonstrated his strong leadership capabilities and expertise in running Synnex. I am very pleased to hand over the reins of the company to Kevin to lead Synnex to its next phase of growth as a leading business process services company," Huang said in a statement.

Murai, former president and COO at Ingram Micro, joined Synnex in March.

"I am honored that Bob Huang and the Board of Directors have appointed me to lead Synnex in this very key time in the history of the organization," Murai said in a statement. "I look forward to working with Bob and the board to further execute on the strategic vision Bob set forth for the organization as well as working with all the Synnex team members, who are well known for their operational excellence and customer service."
