Trapeze appoints Redington Gulf as ‘master distributor’

As part of a new partnership, Trapeze Networks has appointed Redington Gulf as its ‘master distibutor’ for its WLAN products in the Middle East and Africa.

Trapeze Networks offers WLAN technology for small, medium and large enterprises, increasing workforce productivity by providing immediate access to applications and information regardless of location or device.

Under the new agreement, Redington will help Trapeze grow the WLAN business in the MEA region through its existing channel base and logistics capabilities. It will also help Redington increase its market share in the region’s wireless segment.

“The tie-up with Trapeze is a very strategic one for Redington. Our internal research shows a very strong demand for WLAN products considering the booming economies of MEA and the change in operational styles of the workforce,” said Ramkumar Balakrishnan, general manager of Value Business at Redington Gulf.

“Over the last three years, the value division of Redington has grown by more than 100% year-on-year and with the Trapeze tie-up we are poised for further growth,” he added.
