Tech Data Named New UK Distributor For Pure Storage

As part of the deal, Tech Data will be working with existing Pure Storage partners and looking to extend the vendor’s reach into the enterprise and mid-market sectors in the UK.

Tech Data says it is bringing “tremendous growth opportunities” for partners as it formed a new UK distribution partnership with Pure Storage.

The new deal will see the entire portfolio of data management and storage solutions from Pure Storage become available via Tech Data in the UK.

This will in turn extend the reach of Pure Storage to more partners across the UK, Tech Data claims.

Jason Boxall, senior vice president of Advanced Solutions, EMEA, for Tech Data said the move comes as capacity needs of large and mid-sized organisations “continue to rise”.
