Mitel Enhances its Distribution Strategy by Shifting On-Site Portfolio in the U.S.

March 15, 2018

Mitel® (Nasdaq:MITL) (TSX:MNW), a global leader in business communications, today announced an expansion of its partnership with ScanSource (Nasdaq:SCSC) to streamline the distribution of its on-site products in the United States and to better equip U.S. partners with the high-value tools, services, and support needed to grow. Today's announcement is the next in a series of strategic steps to align Mitel's go-to-market approach globally. This follows the recent announcement of Mitel's new global partner program and the company's intent to leverage the strengths of distribution.

As a result of the expanded partnership, ScanSource will now serve as the primary U.S. distributor for all Mitel on-site products. In addition to holding product inventory, ScanSource will provide sales support, offer both technical and professional support, and manage onboarding, training and certifications.

Jenne and Ingram Micro continue to play an important part of Mitel's go-to-market program in the United States and will continue to support their existing Mitel partners.
