ShoreTel, Inc. (SHOR) Partners with Tech Data Canada to Extend Market Reach, Meet Demand

QualityStocks would like to highlight ShoreTel, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHOR). ShoreTel, Inc. is the provider of brilliantly simple Unified Communication (UC) solutions based on its award-winning IP business phone system. The company offers organizations of all sizes integrated, voice, video, data, and mobile communications on an open, distributed IP architecture that helps significantly reduce the complexity and costs typically associated with other solutions.

In the company’s news yesterday,

ShoreTel announced it has inked a new distribution agreement with Tech Data Canada, the Canadian subsidiary of Tech Data Corporation.

Tech Data Canada specializes in IP telephony, wireless networking and VoIP technologies, and has established a partner base of more than 5,000 technology resellers and solution providers. By partnering with Tech Data Canada, ShoreTel can offer resellers the ability to operate in local currencies and time zones with local inventory, ShoreTel products, and multi-vendor solutions.

The agreement also increases the availability of ShoreTel business communications solutions throughout Canada.

“Demand is high for an affordable, scalable business communications solution that is easy to deploy and will support an increasingly mobile workforce. We’re thrilled to work with Tech Data Canada to deliver ShoreTel’s brilliantly simple line of UC products throughout the Canadian market, and we are confident that the relationship will empower our partners and customers to find the ShoreTel solution best suited to their unique communications needs and resources,” George Pappas, country manager, Canada, ShoreTel, stated in the press release.

The partnership supports ShoreTel’s recently announced global two-tier channel distribution strategy, and Brian Gendron, general manager, Black Box Canada, said the partnership delivers an effective business opportunity for Black Box, as well as ShoreTel and Tech Data Canada.

“We’re pleased with the recent announcement from ShoreTel to enter into two-tier distribution for their industry leading Unified Communications and Mobility Solutions. This creates a highly efficient route to market for Black Box Network Services and our ShoreTel customers through Tech Data’s best in class logistics coupled with industry-leading e-business and IT tools,” Gendron stated in the press release. “We believe Tech Data’s superior capabilities and their attention to detail will help Black Box Network Services continue to meet and exceed the expectations of our enterprise customers. Black Box Network Services Canada is happy to be partnered with ShoreTel and Tech Data, both strong partners to help delight our customers and grow our Canadian business.”
