Starting with Dixons, and going on also to make Currys and PC World mainstays of the high street and retail parks, Kalms created a market leader.
Today, the business he created remains at the heart of retail in the UK and internationally following the creation of Dixons Carphone Warehouse.
Formed to reflect the massive consumer changes driven by the rise of digital technology, it retains the spirit of Kalms as well as that of one of the other greats of modern retail, Carphone founder Sir Charles Dunstone.
