ACI to Distribute Prestigio Brand Products
By
ChannelTimes Staff
Mumbai, May 9, 2006
Powermatic Distribution India, a subsidiary of Singapore-based Powermatic Data Systems, has appointed ACI Infocom as its national distributor for its Prestigio brand LCDs and notebooks in India.
The company is also in the process of appointing regional distributors. According to Afsar Sultani, business manager, India for Prestigio, "Our channel strategy is very simple. We shall appoint regional distributors in all locations, who in turn will redistribute to a maximum of 15 partners in each city. These 15 partners would comprise retailers and corporate resellers."
In October 2005, ChannelTimes had reported on Prestigio's plans to set up its distribution structure in the country. According to Sultani, it took a while for the deal to get finalized and "then we waited for the Budget and the March war (when companies push their sales at lower costs to meet the volumes sales target) to be over."
The company began its Indian journey with two LCD monitors of 15" and 17" and will soon be getting into accessories like extended batteries and wireless mice, said Sultani. To create the necessary pull in the market, Prestigio said it will float an international holiday scheme for the channel partners against a very modest target.
"Channels can earn upto 10 percent margins upfront and 10 percent more on services. We are offering an additional two-year limited warranty as a promotional offer," added Sultani.
Prestigio and ACI also plan to start 'shop-in-shop' corners in various malls to create retail awareness of the company's products.

Prestigio is a unknown brand in India. If you want to do business you will have to offer a better pricing to customers and also good margin to Resellers plus better service back up.

Idea is very novel. If can provide instant after sales service then only can achieve. The places in india are not similar with one another. |
