Tarsus Technologies, the value-add distribution arm of JSE-listed MB Technologies, has been voted by readers of The Channel magazine as not only the Best Distributor in the Enterprise Computing sector, but also as the Best Distributor overall.
In its first ever Channel Excellence Awards, under the theme of `Collaboration`, The Channel magazine presented the findings of its readers. A number of commendations were issued under several banners including best distributor and vendor, best vendor and distributor teams, as well as vendors that have made the most provision for resellers in terms of incentive schemes and marketing.
Being given this accolade by the channel is proof that despite a volatile economy, Tarsus Technologies is regarded as one of the mainstays of the distribution market.
Guy Whitcroft, Tarsus Technologies MD, attributes Tarsus`s strength and staying power in the industry to its hands-on approach to business.
"As a distributor of leading international hardware brands, even though Tarsus is not a small company, our `small company` approach has allowed the company to remain dynamic and tightly focused on its core business.
"Our stock availability policies work to ensure that resellers get the stock they need on time, and our delivery service is known to be extremely reliable. Generally, if an order is placed by 11am in the Gauteng area, the reseller can take delivery of the stock by close of business on the same day."
Value-add remains a priority of Tarsus Technologies. Although the distributor is renowned in the industry for its support services and pre-delivery configuration it continues to look for other ways of reducing the total-delivered cost and add further value to the business of its customers. This, along with strong relationships with SA`s leading resellers, whom it is proud to count as its customers, is proving to be a winning recipe.
Tarsus Technologies is the value-add distribution arm of JSE-listed MB Technologies Limited, one of SA`s top-rated IT groups.
Founded in 1985, the company is today recognised as SA`s top-rated hardware distributor and is widely recognised by the channel for its stability, service ethos, product knowledge, excellent support, competitive pricing strategies and channel focus.
Tarsus distributes a wide range of products from the world`s leading manufacturers, including APC, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, OKI, Samsung and Tally.
