ScanSource cut in staff due to coronavirus

ScanSource has said it will lay off 200 employees after seeing multiple areas of its business hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic.

ScanSource CFO Gerry Lyons said that the layoffs were made across multiple business units but focus on non-customer facing positions in the company as well as the distributor’s Salesforce-focused Canpango division.

During an investor call, ScanSource chief revenue officer John Eldh said the reductions include its sales support and sales administration roles, as well as staff in both sales and supply roles in its on-premise communications business.

Most of the reductions are in ScanSource’s North and South American business.
