Zycko Appointed As EMEA-Wide Distributor For Unitrends
First new pan-EMEA vendor signing is significant step forward for Rigby Private Equity expansion plans
(firmenpresse) - Cirencester, England: Thursday, 26th May 2016: Specialist VAD Zycko today announced it has been appointed as EMEA-wide distributor for Burlington, MA based Unitrends. Unitrends is a leader in cloud empowered continuity solutions and this appointment underpins Unitrends’ strategy to accelerate its 100% channel model, and its innovative new partner engagement program, whilst supporting its aggressive growth plans across EMEA, initially covering 14 countries.
David Galton-Fenzi, CEO of Zycko, commented: “We are delighted that Unitrends has chosen Zycko as its pan-EMEA distribution partner. There is a great synergy between our two companies – we both have a focus on networking, cloud continuity and recovery, and we share a common approach to the market.
“Unitrends’ broad support for public, private, and hosted clouds equips its channel partners to meet each customer’s unique requirements today, and paves the way to meet future needs. Unitrends achieved significant momentum with its all-channel sales model, announcing in March 2016 that it grew its cloud business 250% year-on-year. They are looking to replicate that success in the wider EMEA marketplace. At Zycko, we are uniquely placed to help Unitrends achieve that goal, though access to our established pan-EMEA channel network, and experienced sales, marketing and technical teams.”
Mike Dalton, senior vice-president of international sales at Unitrends, said: “We chose Zycko because we wanted a genuine, professional value-added distributor across EMEA. The pan-EMEA availability of Zycko’s support and technical resources, and Zycko’s established reseller network were key factors in our choice. Zycko offers a true EMEA solution with consistency across the regions where Unitrends operates. What Zycko and Rigby Private Equity are trying to build internationally, fits in well with our own expansion goals.”
Significant move forward for RPE
In December 2015, Zycko became part of Rigby Private Equity (RPE). RPE is building an EMEA-wide, high-value, specialist distribution business, with a common proposition and consistent delivery. Value added distributor Wick Hill, is also part of RPE and the combined Wick Hill and Zycko product portfolio encompasses networking, infrastructure, security, communications, storage, access, performance, monitoring and management.
Paul Eccleston, head of RPE, commented: “The appointment of Zycko by Unitrends is a significant step forward for our expansion plans. It also demonstrates that there is a strong need for a pan-EMEA distributor that can work with companies wanting to expand and grow internationally, in partnership with a value added distributor that can deliver technical and sales support consistently across EMEA regions, and give vendors access to an established reseller network.”
