For several years, the Supermicro servers have been sold in large quantities by EET Europarts for surveillance solutions due to high quality, strong performance and flexible configuration. As of 1 December, EET Europarts will offer a complete portfolio of Supermicro products, from SuperServers and SuperBlades, to green storage, parts and accessories, since the companies large-scale build capacity makes it possible to support customer demand from the entire market.

All Supermicro units can be configured to specifications, built and delivered quickly. "Customer demand has motivated us to take necessary steps preparing us for bigger customer demand and volume," says EET Group CEO John S Thomas.

"The Pan European and South African coverage and its increasing performance for the past years makes EET Europarts an important partner in delivering our solutions to the broad market," says Super Micro Computer VP of Sales, Tom Chang. "From EET Europarts' state-of-the-art Logistics Centre in Denmark, handling more than 2 500 orders every day, the European and South African market can be supplied quickly and reliably."

"We find that having servers built at Supermicro's facilities in Holland ensures the reliability customers need to feel comfortable and gives us the capacity to support large orders. We have been waiting for the right time to launch to a market beyond surveillance and this is now," says EET Europarts' Director of Purchase and Product Management, Frederik B Andersen.
