SCANSOURCE EUROPE ANNOUNCES NEW DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT, PARTNERING WITH METROLOGIC
Brussels, Belgium - October 29, 2007 - ScanSource Europe has signed an agreement to distribute Metrologic data capture and collection products, a move that confirms the value-added distributor’s commitment to growth. The partnership will allow ScanSource to provide industry-leading value-added services to Metrologic resellers across the United Kingdom.
The addition of Metrologic Instruments, a leader in retail scanners and mobile computers, allows ScanSource to enlarge and extend its EPoS, supply chain and scanning investment to the reseller channel.
“Metrologic hardware enhances our offering and means resellers can now buy their complete PoS solution from ScanSource Europe,” said Xavier Cartiaux, managing director of ScanSource Europe.
“As well as aiding our current resellers, distributing Metrologic will also prove valuable to potential resellers,” said Vincent Decoster, merchandising director at ScanSource Europe. “Our value-added services and experienced EPoS and Auto ID specialists will bring resellers new opportunities and enable them to grow.”
ScanSource Europe’s Auto ID customers will benefit from products like the new MS 1890 Focus rugged Area Imager or the SP5700 OptimusPDA Mobile Computer, specially designed for this industry.
“ScanSource Europe’s logistical power, online ordering system and stock availability will help our customers to grow their business,” said Robert Hurt, European marketing director at Metrologic. “By distributing our products through ScanSource, Metrologic will benefit from greater European market coverage and better penetration of the Auto ID industry.”
