Fujitsu Siemens Computers appoints Botswana distributor

Johannesburg, 07 Jan 2003

In keeping with its strategy of developing a distribution channel to market, Fujitsu Siemens Computers has appointed ChannelTec as a distributor of its world-leading information technology products in Botswana.

"Our go-to-market strategy throughout Africa includes establishing a distribution channel and we are confident that ChannelTec are the right distribution partners for Botswana," says Jane Tully, Fujitsu Siemens Computers` Business Development Manager, Sub-Saharan Africa.

ChannelTec, established in 1993, operates from Gaborone, distributing information technology equipment through its business and distribution network serving the entire country. The company is the only locally owned distributor in Botswana.

"We chose to align with Fujitsu Siemens Computers as our strategy is to distribute leading brands and top-tier products," says Meempat Narayan, Managing Director of ChannelTec. "We are extremely focused on our distribution business and have maintained our integrity through building relationships with, and selling specifically to, resellers and dealers."

"Botswana is going through substantial growth and there is a substantial market for notebooks, PCs and servers. By distributing one of the world`s leading brands in Fujitsu Siemens Computers, we are confident that we will be able to meet the market`s needs. We have already established our reputation through distributing leading brands such as Microsoft, Verbatim, Epson and Philips, and believe that Fujitsu Siemens Computers products will complement our business offerings."
