Fujitsu Siemens Computers is maintaining a strong focus on growth in Sub-Saharan Africa, and has appointed partners in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mauritius, Malawi, Mozambique and Angola. The company is looking at opportunities in other countries within the region, and will aggressively pursue viable business options.
Jane Tully, Fujitsu Siemens Computers` Business Development Manager, Sub-Saharan Africa, says: "We have strong representation in the above 11 countries, and attribute our growth to our partnering with local organisations indigenous to each country.
"We set stringent qualification requirements for our partners, as we need to ensure the integrity of the image of our high-quality product range. Our partners must demonstrate a substantial level of competence and must make an investment in our technical and sales training programmes.
"We are managing our growth in the region by carefully selecting enterprise and service partners who meet the exacting sales and support standards that our brand dictates.
"The entire region has tremendous growth potential, and is one of the most exciting, albeit diverse, business regions in which to operate," concludes Tully.
