Gordon Qiu
Vice President, China
Gordon Qiu sees Smith as more than a supplier to its customers.
“Our global reach, market expertise, and solutions-driven support have built Smith into a trusted supply chain service partner that can mitigate challenges of any size or scope,” he said.
As Vice President, China, Gordon supports Smith’s China-based offices in Shanghai and Shenzhen and leads the company’s growth and development initiatives in the country’s rapidly evolving electronics market.
“Since opening our first office in China nearly two decades ago, our increase in market share has grown exponentially, and our strong customer relationships have positioned Smith for even greater success in the years to come,” Gordon said.
Gordon joined Smith in 2004 as a Procurement Representative and helped to open the Shanghai office. He was promoted to Purchasing Manager in 2008 and relocated to open the Shenzhen office, where he was named General Manager in 2009. He returned to Shanghai in 2016 and was named Managing Director two years later before taking on his current role in 2022.
In his free time, Gordon can often be found traveling overseas with his wife and son, enjoying international cuisines, or golfing – a pastime he finds both challenging and rewarding, much like his work at Smith.
