EPC Andina (consisting of EPC facilities in Colombia and Peru) will be managed by Ivan Herrera, who has been overseeing ITAD services and remarketing for CSI Leasing subsidiaries throughout the Andean region for nearly eight years. He has more than 20 years of experience in the IT life cycle management industry.

“Having a facility in Colombia will allow us to provide CSI’s customers with a consistent end-of-lease experience, along with comprehensive ITAD services, including standardized equipment processing, reporting, data sanitization and proper recycling,” Herrera says. “Our main goal is to accelerate CSI’s growth in the Andean region, further solidifying both CSI and EPC’s vast global footprint.”
