Tracey Haslam, CEO of Full Circle Electronics, will lead the integration of GER into Full Circle Electronics and will continue to lead the business going forward.
"Our mission has always been to better serve the growing IT and electronics asset disposition market by providing a safe, secure, and sustainable electronics recycling solution, and we certainly see that same mission reflected in the GER business," said Haslam. "Our combined services will better serve enterprise customers, large and small, across industries in the Phoenix area and further scale opportunities nationwide."
