Tarsus Technologies has announced the signature of a new distribution agreement with LG Electronics, which sees the company becoming licensed to supply a comprehensive selection of LG products to the South African reseller channel.
While the agreement gives the distributor access to a wide range of LG products, Darryl Squara, divisional head at Tarsus, says his company will initially focus on LG's LCD monitors and projectors.
"This fits well into our strategy of only carrying the leading brands available in the South African market," Squara continues.
"By adding the LG name to the LCD line-up we already have on board from its major competitor, Samsung, we now carry the lion's share of the top brands covered locally.
"The ability for us to offer resellers access to the two leading names in LCD is also a strong draw-card - we are delighted to be able to provide resellers with a portfolio of LCD products this compelling," he says.
On the projectors front, Squara says LG joins another well-respected brand, namely Acer, in the Tarsus portfolio.
"With the addition of LG to the mix of projector brands we cover, we feel that we have the business sector well covered. We're in a truly enviable position when it comes to the vendors we have in our stable today," Squara adds.
Shane Kennedy, national sales manager for IT products at LG Electronics South Africa, says his company is delighted to be doing business with the MB Technologies group, since it gives his brand access to a group of loyal and professional resellers.
"As the biggest proponent of the MBT Group's local distribution presence, we believe our relationship with Tarsus will yield awesome results," he concludes.
