Graybar has named Rick Harvey as its district vice president for New York regional operations effective Feb. 1. Harvey succeeds Chris Olsen, who will retire after six years in the position and more than 35 years with Graybar.

Graybar's New York district is one of 13 operating districts for the company, servicing eastern New York, New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware. Before being named district vice president, Harvey served as director of comm/data sales for Graybar's Chicago district, and has been with the company for 26 years.

"Graybar appreciates the many contributions Chris Olsen has made throughout his career, and we wish him all the best in retirement," said Dennis DeSousa, Graybar's senior vice president of U.S. business. "We are pleased to have Rick Harvey as our New York district vice president and are confident that he will drive continued success for Graybar in this region."
