On September 28, 2020, WESCO International, Inc. (the “Company” or the “Registrant”) filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-249126) (together with the exhibits thereto, the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) for 185,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01, for use under the Company’s 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as restated on May 31, 2017.
The Company inadvertently filed the Registration Statement as a duplicate of Registration Statement No. 333-249125 (Accession No. 0000929008-20-000071), also filed on September 28, 2020.

The Company also requests in accordance with Rule 457(p) of the Securities Act that all fees paid to the Commission in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited to the Company’s account to be offset against the filing fee for any future registration statement or registration statements of the Registrant.
If you have questions regarding this request for withdrawal, please contact Kyle M. Diamond of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz at (212) 403-1077.
Sincerely,
