New Delhi, July 15: PC major Lenovo India has appointed HCL Infosystems as its sales and service distributor for consumer retail and commercial business.This is part of HCL Infosystem’s strategy to focus around retail and servicing of computer peripherals, after it discontinued its personal computer manufacturing business last year.
According to the partnership, HCL Infosystems will sell and support Lenovo’s entire portfolio of PCs and tablets, as well as enhance their existing cooperation in the distribution of tablets, through its wholly owned subsidiary — Digilife Distribution and Marketing Services.
“HCL Infosystems provides an unmatched distribution network and extensive service coverage especially in the enterprise segment. Using this partnership, Lenovo will be well placed to tap a larger piece of this market on an incremental basis, thus enhancing the company’s market share,” Amar Babu, Managing Director, Lenovo India, said.
