US Robotics awards Tech Data for highest business growth

Yusuf Syed, regional sales manager, US Robotics MENA said: "Year on year, Tech Data makes a difference in distribution. With a commitment to our brand, understanding of channel needs and an exceptional ability to touch the reseller channel in the region, Tech Data continues to be one of our most strategic partners in the region. In 2002, Tech Data achieved 28% market share of U.S. Robotics' total sales out.

Eliot Shepherd, marketing director at Tech Data said: "It is great to be working with a brand that delivers highest and most advanced technologies. In 2002, US Robotics brought to the Middle East a range of Internet connectivity solutions and channel programs, at excellent prices, that have greatly helped in driving business growth on the home and small to medium business internet connectivity market."

"We expect to continue this successful partnership in 2003, as we roll out our networking and broadband solutions, where Tech Data will be working with our Value Added Resellers to bring state of the art connectivity to small to medium businesses and home users across the region" concluded Syed.
