Distribution Ltd and Patriot LLC
announced their partnership in the UK and Ireland, to supply resellers with
Patriot’s line of DRAM, flash memory products and accessories.
Patriot is one of the first technology brands to be launched by the distributor
since re-branding on the 1st of January, 2013. The original parent companies,
CMS Peripherals and CCI Distribution both had strong foundations in the storage
arena, so CMS Distribution is now the
largest independent distributor of IT data storage products and solutions in
the UK and Ireland.
CMS makes a partner for Patriot who is recognized in high performance DRAM and flash products, which
products are marketed and distributed worldwide in over 100 countries.
The Patriot range at CMS Distribution spans
ninety SKUs and counting with the largest offering being in its ‘RAM Modules’
category; SD cards, USB 2.0 and 3.0 flash drives make up the rest of the memory
range. All Patriot Supersonic (USB 3.0) flash drives are Windows 8 compatible. Resellers
will also find the Gauntlet wireless enclosure and mobile drive range, and
wireless USB adapters.
"In CMS Distribution, we have a business
partner who shares our passion of offering high quality, innovated products,"
says Neil Arnold, Patriot’s UK sales director.
CMS Distribution services thousands of
VARs, resellers and consultants from multi-nationals to smaller, local IT
companies; its customer portfolio is graced with the presence of house-hold
names Dixons, Amazon, Argos and Ebuyer to name a few. This is one of the
main reasons Patriot entered into a distribution alliance with the company.
"CMS Distribution’s targeted channel
solutions and large customer network will help Patriot grow our brand further
and make our products even more widely available in the UK and Ireland,"
commented Neil Arnold.
Another range both Patriot and CMS
Distribution are eager to penetrate the reseller market with is the Gauntlet
range, particularly the Gauntlet
Node which has the ability to connect up to eight devices and stream media
and data to up to five simultaneously. It can also function as a
Do-It-Yourself solution, to turn any 2.5" SATA HDD or SSD into a wireless
storage unit. The Gauntlet Node connects to Android and iOS powered devices via
the free Gauntlet Connect App available on Google Play, Amazon App Store, and
the Apple App Store.
Paul
Nevitt, sales manager at CMS Distribution, commented: "CMS is passionate about taking carefully chosen emerging storage
vendors and new technology to market, particularly in the storage arena. In
becoming a distributor for Patriot memory products we have significantly
strengthened our storage portfolio given Patriot’s extensive memory offering."
CMS Distribution now stocks Patriot Memory’s Signature Line DDR3, Memory for
Ultrabook, Viper 3 Series – Black Mamba DDR3, Intel Extreme Masters Memory
Limited Edition and Signature Apple Line DDR3.
