Econocom is a Lenovo Platinum Plus member

Econocom Group has become a Lenovo Platinum Plus International Channel partner.

Only six organisations have Platinum status by Lenovo and while the pair have worked closely in France, they are expanding joint operations in the UK, Spain, Italy and Germany.

The deal means that Econocom will now sell Lenovo products and services using the Chinese outfit’s  360 framework. Econocom said it will benefit from, “the incremental business opportunities Lenovo’s end-to-end portfolio provides.”

Lenovo executive director of EMEA channel strategy and programmes Neil Berville said: “Lenovo recently announced that it has reached $70 billion in revenue for the first time – largely driven through indirect partnerships. We rely on partners who have scale, an in-depth understanding of the market and the ambition to rapidly grow their businesses with Lenovo, and Econocom is a clear example.

“The Lenovo 360 Framework helps partners to offer customers the entirety of our portfolio – across both our Intelligent Devices and our Infrastructure Services groups, something we know Econocom is keen to exploit.”

Econocom international deals managing director Israel Garcia said: “As an international company with the capability to run international projects, the expanded relationship with Lenovo is natural.

“To be one of the six Platinum Plus International Channel partners across Lenovo’s EMEA region is a real honour. It is the quality and collaborative work between our two companies that allowed us to achieve this certification. I am proud of Econocom, the team and the bright future we will deliver with Lenovo.”
