SHI International has reported a four percent year-on-year rise in revenues to $11.1 billion.
The “record-breaking” result was due to growth in its public sector division, which reported a turnover of $3 billion for the first time, marking a 16 per cent jump from the previous year. It now ranks alongside SHI divisions Enterprise/Global and Commerical as a $3 billion businesses for the reseller.
SHI CEO Thai Lee said: “For all the reasons that require no explanation, the past 12 months represent one of the most challenging professional years most of us will ever face. Yet throughout 2020, from our essential onsite employees to those balancing increased responsibilities and decreased bandwidth at home, our dedicated employees went above and beyond to provide customers world-class service when they most needed it.”
Top partners who saw the most annual revenue growth were Dell and Amazon, who saw sales rise 30 percent and 13 percent, respectively. Microsoft, HP, Cisco, VMware, Adobe, Lenovo, Apple and HPE rounded out the reseller’s top 10 partners this year.
Among its “middle-tier” partners, CrowdStrike rocketed 82 percent and Palo Alto Networks saw a 67 percent jump in sales.
